A reddish amber euroswill with a thick moka head. Aroma is of sweet mash, fruity esters and alcohol. In mouth, a sweet cloying beverage with some semblance of roasted malts, and warming alcohol. Well, I expected worse. 0.70 euro for a 250 ml can at Inno Passy.

Puah. La consistenza del mercurio in una birra che è praticamente solo alcool color rosso. Imbevibile

Red brown coloured beer with some medium carbonation and a medium to small off-white head. Strong matly but especially alcoholic touched aroma. FUll creamy palate. Finish is alcoholic bitter-sweet malty touched. Medium one.

Can over a year old. Pours a crystal clear nice red color, with a thin off-white head that dissipates pretty quickly. Nose is pretty faint, not much there at all. There’s a faint hint of some caramel malts. Flavor is pretty poor. Probably because it’s so old, but possibly because it’s just not great. There’s plenty of dark fruits in the mouth, and a little bit of sweet malts. No hops to speak of. Mouthfeel is oily, and not in a good way. Plenty of alcohol there. It grows on me a bit as it warms up. Not awful, but certainly not impressive.

Pours a deep dark gold color. Aromas of fruit, malt, a touch of hops, and apple. Flavor big strong malt, hops, and a touch of menthol like quality. Strong malt and hop aftertaste.

Silver bullet .5l. Wow, awful. Overly sweet, spiced malt and metallic bitterness. Heavy macro alc-bomb.

Reddish colour, thick, albeit very small head. Not much aroma whatsoever, strong malt notes, with significant sweetness and, unfortunately, alcohol notes in finish. Some roasted caramel also present. Wasted potential.

[2526-20091011] 500mL can. Generic grains and mild petrol aroma. Clear, amber red body with a quick foamy white head. Fruity grains flavour finishes like sweet candied pear. Medium-full body. Strong, bold everything.
