Tää aika sourimaine olut😲. Toimi hyvin alkoholittomaksi varsinki. Myös janojuamana☝️

Quarantine Day #8. Something strange for today: a nonalcoholic (ABV = 0.5 %) Kombucha Pale Ale. Whatever that means... The beer pours relatively turbid, dirty dark orange. The fizzy relaxed carbonation creates a white, withdrawn head that merely covers the top for a short snap. A truly faint ring of minuscule bubbles floats on the side of the surface. The nose receives odd nuances: the very first inhale gets dirty wet dishcloth and vinegar. Fortunately, the scent stops sending those unpleasant aromas. Instead, I find hefty cane sugar, some apricot, a bit of yellow sultanas and a hint of matcha. The taste receptors get shocked of the sharp sour palate: dried apricot, fermented nectarine and bitter orange peel constitute the core elements. I also find a generous punch of fructose, vitamin C effervescent tablet, a suggestion of cane sugar and a silent sigh of green tea. Quite a slam! The body is really light. The beer finishes with fermented apricot, sour peach and moderately sugared black tea. Still, a tad fructose and cane sugar can be detected in the background. The aftertaste gives heartburns to the tastebuds over short to medium duration. The mouthfeel is rather tart and slightly crisp as well as massively puckering. It's also effervescent, surprisingly zippy and quite unbeery. Strange. Very difficult to rate.
