Sample, many thanks to Grumbo and Marek for sourcing this. Pours a clear deep amber brown, loose bubbles making a brief appearance. Aroma of amber malt, toffee sweet. Taste continues along these lines, with a pokey alcohol presence, light bodied with some toffee, nuts and brown bread notes, finishing dry. Ok.

Bottle, 0.33l. Clear copper pour, half finger soapy off-white head. Medium lasting, slight lacing on the glass as it goes down. Malts and grains in the nose, sweet, notes of caramel and herbs. Medium to full body, soft carbonation. Thick and oily texture, chewy, good mouthfeel. Sweet malty taste with mild bitter notes in the background. Aroma of lager malt, caramel, herbs and spices. Sugar, alcohol. Grains, mild spiciness. Liquory, subtle lingering alcohol burn. Quite sweet but not cloying. Short to medium lasting finish, dry and boozy. Overall, I expected something much worse. Drinkable but not something I'd go back to. For the style, though, it's quite ok.

330ml can. Pours clear dark orange with a thin white head. Aroma is malt, honey, some fruitiness. Taste is medium sweet, malt, bread, alcohol. Drinkable, which is a compliment for these Sri Lankan extra strong beers.

slightly opalescent golden colour, large, dense and quite stable head; aroma and taste of a grainy-malty strong lager with some dried apricot and herbal notes; well, malt liquours are generally undrinkable - this one is at least easily drinkable

Boca 0,6L - kupljena u lokalnoj trgovini - kvalitetom nije kao njihov stout...
