Alright, let me seal the weekend with something odd: a cardamom flavored beer. I'm always after curiosities, and this is obviously one. Who the h*ll wants to season beer with cardamom?? I don't know but some loony wants to taste it. And even review. Medication should obviously be changed. Cardamom is not the only crazy ingredient here. The beer also contains millet and teff. Teff is a grain predominantly grown in Ethiopia. If you have ever had Ethiopian food, it always comes with injera. Injera looks like spongy tortilla. It's made of teff. So, this beer contains teff. Even the label gives an African vibe. Red, yellow and green are portrayed in so many African flags. Nevertheless, this beer is not African but Swiss. To be more precise, it comes from Appenzell. The beer wears a transparent amber dress. Cheerful carbonation kicks out a soft cloud-white head that elevates up to two fingers. The foamy hat shrinks soon but a neat lace ring and haze decorate the top much longer. Cardamom is soft and gentle in the air. Not spiced at all. Wheat accompanies in the immediate proximity. I can't pick any other grains. The fragrance gives a sensation of a baked roll. The flavor composition is not that appealing anymore... Grainy malt, wheat, fermented peach, orange peel and... yes, a small injection of cardamom. Now, a somewhat more bitter spice is what I get. The grain cocktail contains odd flavors, can't recognize them all but I would argue that teff is there. Teff in injera tastes like sourdough. Nothing sour here but the same vibe reaches me although in a softer form. Millet I have no idea about. The body is light. The finish equals upfront. One hundred percent. Cardamom princess meets a cardamom boy; would you be my toy? Just for a minute and bring all the joy and the pain with it. The mouthfeel is light, spiced, a bit effervescent, slightly lip-glueing and moderately drying. Crispness is marginal but not absent. Okay, tick the box and go. No need to return to this. Ever. Still, not as bad as it could be. Actually quite decent with all its perverted qualifications. This is most likely my first ever beer that contains teff. Though not sure about the two Ethiopian beers that I have had before. Anyway, a curiosity that doesn't impress me much. +0.3 stars for being strange.
