Bottled. Golden colour. Ouzo aroma. Sweet and very aromatic. Salty licorice along with anise dominates. There is a decent maltiness to back the flavours up. Kind of an interesting gimmick.

(Bottle 33 cl) Hazy golden, small creamy head with a good lacing. Spicy, herbal, anise-like nose. Lightly sweetish and malty, but actually rather light-bodied. Honestly I’ve never tasted absinthe, but it’s definitely a very unusual flavour, and it’s pretty much hit or miss whether you like it or not. Comes in a weird aluminum bottle. 110705

Tin bottle
Blond color. Strange aroma, light rubberband, light herbs (mint). Strong Lager, with a minty aftertaste. Not easy…

clear golden colour with few foam, deep cinnamon aroma, herbal, anis and perfumy, sweet and slightly acidic, medium-bodied, the finish is slightly dry showing more anis - well-made but I don't like anis

Deep gold; irregular just off-white head. Usually I smell this in a place where they manufacture hardboard, wallpaper or linoleum. Some child’s green sweets smell like this too. Those child’s sweets return in the taste - with an extra chemical edge. Slick, oily MF, medium bodied. This is beyond words.
