Bottle, 0.50l. Aroma is grassy, grainy, floral and caramelly. Pours clear brown amber color with medium creamy tan-like head and soft visible carbonation. Taste starts with medium sweet caramel and bread, follows fruity, herbal and slightly medicinal, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is medium bitter. Medium body, slick texture and average carbonation in palate. Not as good as young fresh thumper could be...

5.1% alk. Kupljena u Lidlu. Crvenkastno narančaste boje, pjena brzo nestane. Dosta dugo ostaje gorak okus u ustima. OK je.

Bottle So this is premium bitter? Meh. Bitterness is there just so so... Some herbs maybe at max. Thx for the point.

From old tasting notes. Clear amber orange liquid with a creamy beige head. Spicy mal/hop aroma is slightly complex. Semisweet toasted malt palate that becomes drier as it progresses toward the finish. Bitter aftertaste of medium duration. Well rounded and full bodied.

Gift from the parents so thought I’d better give it a go. Very sweet aroma - floral, berries, caramel. Dark Amber. Thin but bubbly off-white head. Sweet, with a bitter kick. As per the aroma, berries and caramel, with added quinine. Medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Astringent finish. It’s OK. Drops points for the minging bitter finish.
