Bottle @ home. Lightly hazy reddish color, medium sized off-white to beige head that lasts for a decent while and leaves fair lacing. Smell and taste are heavy malty, pretty sweet, lightly floral, floral and sticky sweetish hops with a sort of sharp bitter finish. Hmm either it’s old and a little deteriorated or it’s over the top, they’ve tried a little too hard and forgot about the balance. Perhaps a little of both, but it’s a solid beer nonetheless.

Poured up on tap at RBWG16 where it exhibits a hazy deep copper body that supports a light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up thick malts, floral hops, a little bit of pine hops and then some pineapple blended into soft pillowy sugary sweet malts at the end of the draw. There’s very little of the ABV noticed in the nose. The taste delivers smooth slick malts growing into modest bitter hops that have a sliver of pine and citrus to them. It then flows into some sweet dark fruity esters like raisins and prunes. Pretty solid sipper.

Bottle, 0.50l, courtesy of Marcin. Pours hazy ruby brown color with thin creamy tan-like head and average sparkling appearance. Aroma of peach, pineapple, passion fruit, caramel and herbs. Taste starts by sweet caramel and dried fruits, following is resinous, herbal and with notes of tobacco, mouthfeel is mild spicy, while finish is heavy bitter. Medium to full body, syrupy texture and average carbonation in palate. Hard as hell, good as heaven...

Keg at Kufle i Kapsle, Warsaw. Hazy nut brown, small head. Aroma of sugar and boiled vegetables. Super mega sweet. Trying to rate as my mouth is sticking together. Hops creates an unpleasant inky sensation with all the sugar and saccharine. Tastebuds die in a sea of syrup. Unbelievably sweet.
