Bottle, 0.5l. Clear golden pour with two finger soapy white head. Regular head retention, leaving some lacing on the glass. Nose initially a bit lager-ish. Malty character with grainy backbone. As it warms up some cardboard notes get more into spotlight. Thin to medium body. Regular texture, slightly thick. Average carbonation. Moderately bitter taste, slightly sticky mouthfeel. Aroma is malty and grainy, slightly herbal, a bit earthy. Cardboard. Some peppery notes. Metallic acidity in the aftertaste leading into dry finish. Overall, nothing special. Drinkable when served cold but otherwise pretty average effort.

500 ml bottle, bought in London. ABV is 4.2%. Deep golden colour, large white head. Aroma of blackcurrants and blackcurrant leaves, a hint of toffee. . The flavour is medium dry with a slight fruitiness, which makes it quite drinkable. Decent hops in the finish, become sharpish in the aftertaste.

Bottled 500ml. -from Pivoteka Zagreb. Shared with Marko and hrabren. Dark golden coloured, small off-white head, slightly sulphury nose. Water with notes of sulphur or similar chemical compound with touch of caramel and herbs. Something is wrong here...

0.5 l bottle from Pivoteka Zagreb. Shared with Marko and Ogi. Clear golden, almost invisible off white head. Industrial malts and hops, watery. No distinct taste, no finish. Like a watered down soup cooked in dirty water or something. Terrible.

Shared with Ogivlado and Hrabren. Golden body. Smells burnt... matches. Burnt hay. Something like that. Sulphury, cabbage. Oh, and malt. What the.... Burnt apple taste. Sweetish, vaguely bitter, vaguely sulphury... unappealing. Saved by a tiny touch of lemon pith. Oh great...
