Nice dark amber colour, good head. Taste is sweet, slightly bitter hints of malt, caramel. Not a bad brew.

750 mL bottle. Metallic, yeasty, slightly nutty aroma features cookie and green grape scents. Pours a hazy light amber with some bubbling and a large amount of thick, uneven, beige head. Produces good lacing. Cool wisps of "smoke" came out of the bottle when I opened it. Metallic, fruity, simplistic, malty, excessively sweet taste. Carob, butterscotch, and watermelon flavors. Dull, unpleasant aftertaste. Light to medium body. Soft in the palate.

Pours deep amber/mahogony with good head and retention. Aromas are floral, fruity, with striong spices, and some hopping.Flavours are strong spices, almost curry-ish and dark fruity hops bitterness. Lots of sugars in the finish, with nice lingering spicy pumpkin-seed bitterness. A strange BDG, but a nice one

25.4 ounce bottle with a short cork stamped "A-07". Coppery orange, wispy head. In order of intensity, smells of toffee, acrid hot circuit board, rust, blueberry, feet. Soft and sugary flavor, sweet-salty, leafy, and hinting at honeysuckle nectar. Plummy-orangey finish, bitter gallberry honey and wet wool aftertaste. Sweetness partly augments the light palate. Very little carbonation. Even without its failings, this would be an uninteresting beer.

750ml corked bottle. BB 25/10/???3...2013 possibly? Damaged label :-( Served moderately chilled in Duvel glass. Very nicely presented beer. Thick sort of offwhite head atop a mid-amber body with a tinge of haze. Quite a grainy malt aroma. Nutty, burnt caramel, spicy rye bread, liquorice, mild charcoal roastiness leading onto a bit pepper and clove, subtle dark fruits. Sticky malt texture, soft moderate to low carbonation, full body that doesn’t allude to a high abv. Slight drying grain astrigency, but in good balance. Quite a malt-driven body. Sweet toffee and nutty malt, bit of bready yeast in there. Undertones of orange, vanilla and spice on the body. Finishes with a touch of liquorice, drying moderate bitterness, and a small indication of the alcohol. Not an overly complex beer, but nicely flavoured and somewhat intriguing its subtle character.

0.75 l bottle from beershop.hr. It poured clear darker orange with medium sized head that went down pretty fast. Slightly alcoholic and malty aroma, weak and simple aroma. Flavor is malty, somewhat alcoholic as well, sweetish. Relatively thin bodied, without something that would stand out here. Some earthy and honey sweet finish. Slightly alcoholic which also makes finish a bit bitter. Reminds of some better malt liquor and not so good as some supermarket BDG I had some time ago. OK and easily drinkable beer when you consider it all, but misses character being so boring!
