Canned 500ml. -Found at random Albert Heijn market in Amsterdam. Dark golden coloured, medium sized white head, alcoholic nose. The taste is strong alcoholic again, some notes of bread and glue and that’s it. Did I mention alcohol???
1.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20 Marko (2977) - Split, CROATIA - NOV 18, 2009
0.5l can, brewed by Grolsch? courtesy of and shared with ogivlado (thanks!) Poured a medium sized thick white head that went away at a medium pace. Slightly darker golden body. Soft malty nose mixing with some alcohol. Alcohol going gluey in the taste (drvofix again), some soft maltiness ending dry, pear. Soapy as it warms. Some light bitterness in the end. If this came from Eastern Europe or some American macro it’d probably be in the mid to lower 1’s. And that is exactly how much it deserves. Heck, I feel like I’m overrating it. Had far, faaaar better beers both in the ESL and possibly Malt Liquor categories.

300 ml bottle. Golden body with a white head. Aroma is light malty, hay and alcohol. Flavor is sweet malt with too much alcohol. Pretty primitive and not balanced at all.
