0,50 bottle courtesy of the Hoppy guys from Thessaloniki-Greece. Many thanks brothers. Consumed in Serbia (ciao Marko/Matt). It pours chestnut skin color (!), pretty dark with a small and gassy ivory foam. Nose: veggies (rotten), white eggs, paper. Mouth: a sip was enough. Tart, boring and likely infected. Not in style (absolutely) and far from being called a beer. A total pour in the sink! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle at Borefts, thanks to Mathieu87 so it seems although I don’t believe we met, 28/09/13. Lightly hazed dark amber with a thin off white head that dissipates edgeward. Nose is bready malts, light toffee and fruits. Taste comprises bready malts, summer fruits, light sugar. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, dry finish with a touch of bitterness. So so bitter, I’ve had far worse on cask!
