Bottle. Quite hazy deep golden honey colour. Aroma of some sourness with caramel and malt. Sweet bit sour malty flavour with some bitterness.

500ml bottle Nondescript hazy orange, thin head. Caramelly aroma, some vanilla. Very disappointing taste, watery and nondescript in the mouth, and with a tinny sticky finish. An odd mushy bitterness and maltiness.

Bottle. Clear gold color. Small white head. Very strong, sweet, yeasty, alcoholic aroma. Hints of hay. Unfortunately, the fairly promising aroma suddenly dissolves into a puddle of watery hyena-piss in the flavor. Jesus, what have they done to this poor beer? It’s watery and sickly sweet, but at the same time acrid and bitter. Thankfully, absolutely no aftertaste. Dry palate. Heavy carbonation. Bleargch. Christ.

Bottled. Hazy yellow, creamy white head. The aroma is sharp and acrid. It has a watery.

Bottled. Hazy pale orange colour, creamy white head. Sweet fruity aroma with a sting of alcohol. Barnyardish flavour with weak malty and hoppy notes. Papery finish. Unbalanced and quite crappy flavour. ACIDIC. Aroma the only positive thing in this one.

Bottled (BB 04/2005)
Dark honey yellow, decent off-white head. Light aroma of rye bread and skunked hops. Malty with unpleasant flavor of hay and wood.

Light brown color, little head. Grassy and mildly skunky flavor. Grassy and sweet flavor is cut by late bitterness and dryness. Medium bodied palate, high alcohol content is covered totally. I like the different ending, otherwise normal baltic strong lager.

Bottled. Hazy reedish golden. Sweet and medium bodied. Ambitious rich malt flavour killed by infected sourness.
