Dark and brown and flat. Pleasant smoked malty flavour with plenty of body. A well balanced example of this style. Left some sediment but no lacing. A new brewery for me.

Butelka. Ciemny, mahoniowy kolor. Piana dość obfita, biała, opada powoli. Cieżkie słody, dużo palonego, brązowego cukru, toffi, karmel. Susz owocowy, daktyle i figi. Wysycenie raczej małe, słodycz na wysokim poziomie, alkohol niezbyt dobrze ukryty. Mogłoby być lepsze....

Bottle conditioned 500ml: BBD Feb 15. Poured at home into a UK pint sleeve on 10th Jan 15 during a ’random beer tasting’ with myself. Amber body with a slight mistiness, no sediment left the bottle that I saw. The head started full and deep, but it soon fell away to a wisp and collar. Toffee Apple nose with an off vinegar undertone. The sourness from the vinegar aroma carried on into the taste unfortunately, this beer was ’on the turn’ if not already ’turned’. Malty semi-sweet base below the off-ness but I have a feeling I will be sat on the loo for a while tomorrow because of this: I refuse to drain pour it though!

500ml bottle conditioned: BBD Feb 15. Poured at home on 22nd Dec 14. Deep golden, amber body with a thin white topping. All a bit homebrew like for me. Mild apple aroma, some apple flavours in the taste too. Just did not do it for me at all.
