On tap at Pivoteka Zagreb. Brownish coloured, small to medium sized beige head, oranges and alcohol in the nose. Sweet malty, caramel, oranges, noticable alcohol and mild spicy with light touch of cherries. Again alcohol in the finish.

Tap at Pivoteka. Huge caramel/toffee and alcohol aroma, not terribly complex but works. Soft taste, full, toffee/caramel, very mild orange liqueur touches, sweetish, more alcohol presence. Somehow works, not cloying. Not fantastic, but very good life!

Rusty red brown colour with thin head. Aroma and flavour have bitter citrus peel and lots of fruit syrup. The bitter versus sweet balance is good.

Bouteille 33cl, BB 12/201, batch# 16.72 Cuivrée, col crémeux blanc-cassé assez tenace. Arôme au nez finement houblonné, notes US d’agrumes avec de suite un effet de douceur sucrée résiduelle. Malts pâle, caramel et un effet alcool perçant bien. Petit rappel de fleur d’orangé avec un effet chocolat plaisant. Avec la t° l’Amarillo perce plus et un effet orange ressort mieux. Palais est d’office axé sur une douceur persistante fruité d’orange e caramel. Retrouve une petite pointe épicée rappelant le cèdre et un fini agrumes des houblons. Le tout est collant aux lèvres avec une petite note de réglisse.
