Bottle 50 cl. Reddish brew with some floaties, quite clear. A bit sourish impression. Unharmonic. Nothing special.

bottle from pivnizub - thanks! Hazy copper red-brown colour, large and creamy beige head. Malty, slightly yeasty aroma. Medium-bodied, solid malty base with an intensive caramel start, also hints of raisins and cocoa pwder. Well-balanced by dry, aromatic hops that add a pleasant biterness, especially in the roast-malt-accented finish. A very well crafted beer, delicious!

It’s slightly hazy, red copper with a huge, creamy and lasting head. The aroma has notes of caramel, nuts, roasted malt and a little syrup and fruit. The flavour is moderately sweet to sweet with notes of roasted malt, loads of caramel, nuts, fruit and light syrup. The finish in this nice and charming beer is dry.

Bottle looks simple, but good, the beer in the glass wonderful, brownish-red, modest turbid, nice head. Starts nicely spicy, notes of cinnamon and other christmas spices, not too dry. Finish mild and very well balanced, a bit earthy, still wonderful spicy. A great beer!

Bottle. golden- orange colour with a beige head. Aroma is malt, fruit. Flavour is alcohol, malt, fruit, hop, caramel. Medium body. boring beer.

Bottle, courtesy of fonefan. Hazy orange body topped by a small, beige head. The aroma has a little off-flavor, quite papery, with pale malts and hints of fruits. Malty flavor with caramel, dried fruits, fresh fruits and a fruity, bitter finish. Medium body. The beer had that papery touch all the way, that’s not a good thing. Still, it wasn’t all bad. 091024
