A strong lager with a brave heart. Unapologetic about its alcohol taste, yet surprisingly sweet, it’s got a dash of fruitiness and a clear bitter finish. A fiery leader among beers.

4.6/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 4 Flavor 4 Texture 4 Overall 4.5
Clear amber colour, not too much white head; aroma of grain, some minimal biscuit and alcohol; taste is dominated by alcohol and malty sweetness - unfortunately it does not have enough body for this high ABV

Bottle at a restaurant on Atrani main square, Italy. Why am I desecrating this place with this?? Pours clear dark golden with an off white head. Aroma of grain, caramel, light vanilla touches and malt. Flavor is over moderate sweet and light bitter. Light to medium bodied with high carbonation. Not as bad as I expected but really don’t need this kind of ABV..

Bottle 330ml (Alko)
Deep clear golden-amber color, decent white head. Skunky nose with some fruityness. Medium-bodied. Very sweet, green apple, skunky grassy hops, alcoholic bite in the finish. Quite fail.

Bottled (from Alko Prisma, Vaasa). Amber colour, huge off-white foamy head. Aroma is grainy, herbal, grassy and mildly toasted along with some slight burnt rubbery notes. Flavour is sweet toffee, some alcohol, mild grainy and grassy notes along with some floral notes. Not the harshest of strong/imperial pils’, but still not very pleasant either. Gets a bunch boozier and unclean as it warms up.

33 cl bottle. Dark yellow-gold color, thin white head, quickly disappearing. Aroma of syrup with grains and a metallic bitterness. Taste sweetish. Average carbonation, medium bodied, boozy.
