500 ml bottle. Slightly unclear brown dark red with a foamy head. Aroma is mostly nuts, dried fruits, grape juice, metal, citrus and caramel. Malty sweetness, metallic bitterness. Medium bodied, oily texture, soft soft carbonated, dry bittersweet malty finish. Decent, very Altbier like!

Dunkle, klare, rötliche Farbe. Süßlich, herb getreidiger Geschmack. Etwas Traubensaft. Deutlich bittere Noten, die nicht nur durch den Hopfen sondern auch durch die starke Röstung kommen.

500ml bottle. Pours clear amber, off-white head of foam. Aroma of ryebread, nutty malts. Medium to light bodied, dark nutty malt appears to rule the overall character, gently sweet, nicely rounded. A good olde ale for a winters night.

5.2% alc, due date: 21 Feb 21 LA0021. Bought at Vrutak, Zagreb and shared with little Dina. Clear amber, small off-white head. Aroma is malty, hints of toffee, dried fruit, toasted bread and brown sugar. Flavour is bready, fruity, dried fruit, fruit jam, light earthy and herbal hoppy notes. Nice fruity and malty sweetness. Medium body. Light to moderate bitterness. Moderately lasting dry finish. A solid example of the style.
