Dec. ’16. A 0.5 l bottle at 3.8% ABV. From Mali Ducan, Split. It poured a clear reddish-copper body with a medium sized head. Light ginger and pumpkin in aroma with lots of sweet caramel and toffee malt, pretty pleasant one. Flavor was lightly bitter spicy and lightly soapy like pumpkins. Grainy note was strong, acting like a bridge to the decent, elegant sweet caramel malt in the background. Unfortunately also quite metallic towards the finish which ruins otherwise a pleasant brew. Thinner to medium body with moderately long, lightly soapy-pumpkin and metallic-caramel finish. Could be better, but expected worse, so it was a win-win anyway.

Thanks Vanja! At Pivoteka. Copper/bronze amber-brown body, clear with an off white head. Creamy light pumpkin aroma, slightly herbal, sweetish. Light malty taste, vague pumpkin. Light, OK, unimpressive. I don’t know, not bad in any way but wouldn’t order it again.

3.8% from Trinkgut in Wuppertal. Smooth spicy beginning. Malty dry body, full and round with nice fruity spices in the background. Not real pumpkin tasteable, but fruity-sweetish in the background, nice spices and an earthy herbal bitterness in the end. Nice stuff!

Bottle at home. Pours copper amber, nose is light caramel and fruit, taste is a bit wishy washy.

500ml bottle. Not really sure about this one. It may once have been a good beer, when at 5%. But this is just a bit like dish water, a shadow of what it could be and maybe was.
