Can, 0.50l, courtesy of Marko, shared with colleagues. Aroma of cereals, caramel, toasted malt and alcohol. Pours clear dark golden color with thin creamy white head and average sparkling appearance. Tastes sweet caramelly, honeyish, slightly vegetably and grassy with mild bitter finish. Light to medium body, almost syrupy texture and average carbonation in palate. Not the worse of malt liquors...

Can split at L6, thanks to Leighton, 17/01/19. Pale golden blonde with a decent off white cap that dissipates to a spiders web. Nose is pale malts, grass, toasted grains, bready notes, apple peel, faint booze. Taste comprises pale malts, cereals, light citric notes, corn husk, sugars, crackers. Medium plus body, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a light rising boost. Ok licker.

From Nate: pours a clear gold with some head. Rank malt liquor/euro strong lager aroma wafts over to my nose from two feet away; I know this is not going to be pleasant, but it is 9:20 pm and I am at work... and that is not pleasant either. Yeah you do have to hold your nose a bit. Yeah it is sweet. Yes, I dread the thought of this becoming warm. It is swill, but at this point, it is all I got.

Certainly better than the Indian malt liquor I had before. Some mashy garbage like malt. Golden pour with ok head. Crisp finish. Tall can.
