Bottle. Reddish amber withe a white head. Fruity aroma with apples, pears, some cherries, light bread and spices. Lightish bodied, perhaps slightly fizzier than I wanted. Modest sweetness gives way to quite firm bitterness. There's a touch of toast as well as fruit. Not bad.

500 ml bottle into shaker. From ALDI, Riverwood. Nose a bit skunky and vegetal at first but disappears to a more acceptable aroma of sweet malt and grass. Nice copper colour with a thin white head. A few tiny bubbles. Some lacing. A little effervescence followed by some dark caramel malt then finishing with smoky bitterness. Quite tasty, well balanced. I've certainly had a lot worse bitters.

4.7% alk. Kad se usporedi sa onim Lidlovim bitterima, ova je vrhunska. Lijep miris, ugodna gorčina i dobar okus. Jedna jednostavna ali lijepo izbalasnirana i pitka piva.

Bottled 500ml. from Vrutak Zagreb. Dark amber coloured, medium sized off-white head, malty nose. Moderate malty, caramel, light fruity and nutty with again notes of caramel in the finish. Nothing thrilling here but all in all simple and pleasant beer.
