Bottle at the Kulminator. Dark brown/amber with a beige frothy head. Fruity, somewhat vinous aroma. Flavor is a bit raisin with a touch of, perhaps, citrus. Near medium body with smooth carbonation. Has a touch of metal. Finish is very well balanced, leaving fruit and bitter together.

Bottled. Pours reddish-brown with medium head. Aroma unremarkable. Flavour is bitter caramel; reminiscent of Polish strong lagers. We are not impressed.
