330 ml bottle served in tulip. Pours clear dark amber with decent white head. Not very complex aroma, a bit malt, that's it. Taste is malty-bitter with sour hint. Very refreshing and smooth. Nice palate. Light bodied, soft to fizzy carbonated. Decent beer, but the lack of aroma leads to a average rating. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Can, 0.44l with the funky widget. Deep ruby pour with one finger creamy off-white white head. Long lasting, excellent retention. Nose quite subtle; malty, grainy, a pit peppery and herbal. Some caramel notes. Medium to full body with almost flat carbonation. Gets thin as it stays a bit, strange. Very creamy texture. Mildly bittersweet taste with quite a dry mouthfeel. Aroma is a bit faint and lacking. Somewhat empty. Herbal notes. Caramel and toffee, a bit peppery. Some slight cardboard off-notes. Dry finish. Overall, quite bland.

0.33 l bottle from Pivoteka, Zagreb. Drank it years ago but didn’t rate so I’ll fix that now. Clear amber, small off white head. Metallic, fruity, toasty, light spicy. Taste is ok, sweet, toasty, malty, honey and gingerbread. Light body, quite watery, soft to medium carbonation, abrupt finish.

Pours clear amber with a lasting foamy off-white head. The aroma contains roasted malts, caramel, toffee, It tastes medium sweet and light bitter with a bitter, roasted finish. Creamy texture and soft carbonation. Could have had more flavour overall.
