Colour invisible (as it resides in it’s can), but enjoying it’s colour is anyway not why one would drink this beer. Malty aroma, caramel, alcohol, dark fruits. Sweet malty flavour, metallic, sugar and alcohol. Finish sugar, light dark fruits and somewhat alcoholic.
This beer is about delivering an alcoholic punch to you. Nothing more, nothing less. And honestly, it is not doing a bad job.
(From 50cL can consumed in style -from the can in a train)

50 cl. can @ home, gift from my parents. Dark yellow with a dense white head. Sweet grainy aroma. Sweet taste with some alcohol warmth. Lively carbonation. I’m not a fan of this type of beer but this one is not too bad.

Can from PULS markt, Eindhoven. Pours dark yellow with medium white head. Aroma is vague with hints of malt and alcohol. Taste is light bitter and light sweet. Body is light oily with good carbonation. Finish is light bitter and vinous with notes of malt and alcohol. Rather boring beer and alcohol is too dominant for my taste.

From BA (December 2007): Brown 30cl bottle best before the end of Dec 2007, so drank just in time! Big beer (10%) so poured into a big glass, my lovely ’Judus’ one. Looks good, dark golden amber colour with a full white head bubbles rising up to replenish it, sadly the head began to leave before I started drinking, not so good. It’s a strong lager (not an English Barleywine) so I wasn’t expecting a huge aroma, I wasn’t dissappointed. There are hints of sweet malts and biscuits but they have only been captured because of the glass I used. The alcohol hits you straight away but hops, yeast and a dry hay taste are in there too, Scottish shortcake biscuits (good quality, made with real butter) are somehow in the flavour as well. All the flavours stay, the alcohol obviously stays the longest, but for such a strong lager it isn’t metalic or tinny towards the end. One of the better ’head banging’ lagers I have tried over the years.

50cl can @ home. I was expecting something brown because of the colours of the can, bit it’s a really nice golden yellow colour with a nice white head. Smells alcohol, glue, sharp and malts. Tastes sweet, alcoholic, malty. I don’t really like it. Im glad im sharing this one. Bit too heavy for me. Palate is warming, okay carbo - but too heavy like i said.
