Pours clear pale golden color with a medium head. Aroma of hops, fruits, grass and some corn notes. Flavor of grass, fruits, hops and pale malts. Refreshing.

Good beer.I drinked it at slovak pub in Bratislava.Smell of, cereal and coffee.good sweet

Tap at Klub Arkitektu restaurant in Prague. My first Slovak beer. Dark chestnut pour with a frothy head. Nose of subtle grain and caramel. Flavor holds fruity and sweet malt with a touch of rye-like grain. Decent.

Dark colour with white-brown head, in taste I felt caramel and moderate sweetness I find only low bitterness, not really sweet, with coffee & malts aroma.

Decent chocolate and maltiness to this with some sweetness in the finish. Not bad.

Enyhén vöröses, sötétbarna színű, világosbarna habja picit krémes és kitartó. Illata pörkölt malátás, lágyan karamellás és kávés. Lehetne sokkal ízesebb is, enyhe pörkölt malátás alapíz mellett van egy távoli aszalt szilvás-karamelles íze, de nem valami erős. Száraz, szénsavassága rendben van, de eléggé vizes, vékonyka, szerintem rendesen spóroltak az alapanyaggal, de ez jellemző is a Heineken-re, bárhova is teszi be a lábát... Összességében azért rossznak sem nevezhető, de nekem a világos jobban bejött.

UPDATED: MAR 7, 2012 Bottled. Dark brown color with beige head. Aroma coffee and chocolate. Taste, malt, with coffee notes. Easy drinkable beer.

Draught at Flagship, Bratislava. Clear very dark brown, rich head. Sugary sweet with bread and saccharine. Like rye bread with artificial sweetener. Light-medium bodied with clean mouthfeel, no bitterness. Dull and lifeless.

Warning! Early amateur rating! Bottle in Bratislava. Light and sweet start. Light bodied - seems to contradict the dark colour. Dry finish, nutty undertone. Good.
