UPDATED: SEP 10, 2021 Bottle from Morrisons. Pours a slightly hazy copper/amber colour with a medium sized throthy off-white head. Aroma is quite fruity with marmalade, caramel and honey. Taste is the same again, with some added fruit cake, toffee and a touch of spice. Bittersweet finish. Medium body and smooth mouthfeel. Nice lacing all the way down the glass. Very good old fashioned strong ale. I will definitely be seeking this beer out again.

UPDATED: SEP 4, 2020 50 cl. bottle. Cloudy amber-colored with a very nice and quite persistent beige head. Aroma is mostly malty, along with some dried fruits. There are also slightly felt herbal hops. Aroma is not that strong. But the taste! It made my eyes pop! Malty with hops. It's medium sweet and somewhat bitter. Loved the balance. It has a medium-to-full body with an oily texture. Carbonation is average, but at a lower end. Its lingering finish is somewhat bitter. A very well-balanced and very pleasant beer. I wish I had more.

UPDATED: JUL 30, 2020 0.5 l bottle from Vrutak, Zagreb. Shared with little Dina. Clear amber, small off-white head. Soft fruity aroma, red fruit, dried fruit. Some toast, some alcohol. There is a herbal hint of hops in the back. Medium body, moderate carbonation, quite drinkable. Slightly bland, malts, toast, some fruit. Light finish with some alcohol present. Moderate bitterness nicely present. Drinkable for a strong ale but not particularly rich.

UPDATED: JUN 21, 2020 500 ML Solidno pivo, lijepe bakrene boje, osrednje pjene, fine tropske arome... Okus dobar, pitko, gorkasto na prvu, poslije fino na nepcu...

UPDATED: JUN 20, 2020 Poured from a bottle into a tulip glass. Slight lemon aroma, but little else. Pours a clear amber colour with a white head that holds well and dissipates to produce consistent lacing and a high collar that leaves a watermark down then glass. Well balanced flavours which are slightly spicy (can taste cloves and cinnamon), malty and a decent bitterness. Not as heavy as the ABV suggests which makes it dangerously easy to drink. Tingly carbonation and a. Slightly oily mouthfeel. Very nice ale.
