50cl bottle at Belgian Beergeeks/Brewver summer tasting at Tim's house. Thanks Tim. BB 15/03/2023.
Cuivre, col crémeux fin blanc-cassé.
Arôme garde une touche classique, retrouve ce côté classique dans ce genre de pays. Rétro sur un côté dense en grains, presque d'avoine. Caramel et un houblonné classique noble.
Palais est malté avec une belle note de caramel (voire un peu doux), caramel le tout ayant ce côté houblonné allemand versant sur le noble. Garde une touche de céréales.

Sample from Grumbo, via minutemat. Drank at home on 28th October 2021. My third Armenian rate, sadly all from the same brewery. Anyway this was a dark amber/brown coloured beer that didn't really have a head. Malty nose, more treacle than caramel although the taste held a caramel sweetness rather than a treacle one. I thought this was OK, if a little 'old' condition wise.

Sample, many thanks to Grumbo / Marek. Pours a clear mahogany amber brown, no head. Aroma of dark treacle, dried fruits, amber malt. Taste brings dark caramel notes, cardboard malt, dust, dried fruits. A bit watery, thin, low carbonation.

2/10/2021. Bottle received via Poland courtesy of Marek. Pours clear dark amber brown with a small frothy off-white head. Aroma is malted, stewed, boiled veg, toffee, dried fruits, yeast. Medium sweetness, light bitterness. Moderate body, soft carbonation. Not so great.

500ml dark green bottle, kindly shared by djoeye. Good looking in the glass with a stable beige head over a clear copper-reddish body. Spotty lacing. Moderate smell of dried fruits and toffee. Similar taste character of toffee and dried fruits. Ends mid-sweet. Pretty alright, (Rating session with lmojoh, djoeye and Finn, Tromsø 03.12.2020).
