2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20 ectuohy27 (379) - - FEB 21, 2013Can’t really hate this, even if one is sort of supposed to look down on anything of such high alcohol by volume, and such high...volume (67 oz, 2 L). Good balance between malt, alcohol burn, and the expected if suboptimal adjunct lager; all elements are strangely in harmony. Quite drinkable, and better than so many of Saku’s insipid PLs.

2l plastic bottle. Every sip is agony. Like trying to commit suicide in a very slow and painful way. Vodka+beer= this drink.

Big murder size plastic bottle (thanks dad!). Deep golden colour with small white head, that disappears quite quickly. Aroma is sweet malts along with with quite much alcoholic notes. Flavour is sweet alcohol along with a big malty body with some honeyish sweetness too. Some slight metallic hints also. Quite nice while cold.

Bottle. Clear golden colour with a medium moslty diminishing white head. Sweet aroma and sweet taste of malts and alcohol. Boring pretty much standard estonian beer. This is a bit stronger than most estonian beer with a better palate but high Abv. is not everything.
