Barwa ciemnobursztynowa, niemal klarowne, piana zabrudzonej bieli, umiarkowanie stabilna i podobnież obfita. W aromacie karmel, opiekany chleb, estry brzoskwinia, rodzynki, winogrona. W smaku półsłodkie, sporo estrów jabłkowo-winogronowych, karmel, ciemne pieczywo, cukier trzcinowy, rodzynki. Goryczka niska do średniej, wysycenie w normie, alkohol nisko wyczuwalny, lekka przyprawowość, nieco jej brakuje. Poprawne, ale bez szaleństwa.

Bottle, 0.33l. Aroma of caramel, dried fruit, yeast and grass. Cloudy brown color with thin creamy tan-like head, floating yeast particles and sparkling appearance. Taste starts with sweet toasted malt, following is quite plain, mainly malty, earthy, faint fruity and slightly grassy, mouthfeel is smooth but spicy, while finish is mild bitter. Medium body, creamy texture and fizzy carbonation in palate. Well hidden ABV, but lacks some taste...

0,33 l bottle. Thanks to Jacci & Nils. Nearly clear dark copper in the glass, small white head. Fruity smell with malty background. Taste starts malty, some sweetness, mid bitterness. Some woody elements. Little bit dry in the background. Higher carbonated than expected. Really nice stuff.

Bottle at home from Beers of Belgium and drunk as a flight over two nights. This was the first of the three. A very lively pour that left me concerned about the carbonation levels. The head dissipated quickly and the beer was a very pretty brown coppery colour in the glass. No nose to speak of, but I did detect some malt and hops. The taste was gentle malt and yeast in perfect balance and some bitter hops. The mouthfeel was as smooth as silk and there was no sign of the carbonation. This had echoes of an English best bitter and it was very pleasant to sip while I chatted to my wife about the day. It didn't set my world on fire, but it was an extremely pleasant beer that I really enjoyed.

$6.49 bottle, Rio Hill Wine. Pours hazy amber brown with a large beige head. Aroma is black tea, brown leaves, dried fruit, yeast, gum. Flavor is bubblegum, dried fruit, yeast, black tea. Lots of carbonation - almost wish it was a little softer, but this is good nonetheless.

Bottle. Hazy dark amber, offwhite head. Melanoidin and raisin nose. Medium body, light foamy, dry minerals on the palate. Roast, wood, raisins, caramel/melanoidin, light strawberry, plums towards the finish, herbal hops. Not the biggest fan of the caramel notes, but the rest is complex and pleasant.
