0.33 l bottle at Ambasada. Zagreb, shared with Pliš and Krteček. Hazy dark golden, small off-white head. Light malt, caramel, wood, spice, ripe fruit, dried fruit, old hops, expected oxidation signs such as cardboard. Nice sweet malty and bitter balance, some tartness, no heavier sour character. Tobacco and other herbs and spice. Alcoholic, strong, soft texture and carbonation, medium body, light finish. It is an oxidized hoppy beer and that's good, but this one just doesn't hit it.

Gourmet-Flasche: Orangey coloured, hazy to cloudy, small and stable, distinctive sweet-bitter orangey aroma of dried fruits and noble fruity hops; solid bitter-sweet flavour, quite full bodied; lingering solid fruity hoppy-bitted finish. A goody...

0.33 l bottle from 'Craftbeershop.com', best before October 2023. Slightly hazy, deep reddish amber with a medium large, foamy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish-malty, gently fruity, a bit vinous aroma of caramel, strawberry jam, orange peel and light tobacco. Quite sweet, malty, gently fruity taste of caramel, strawberry jam, orange peel, pine, some tobacco and a touch of wood, followed by a short, gently bitter, moderately woody and a bit vinous finish. Medium to full body, smooth and and slightly creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Impressive ale, fairly malty but also nicely woody-fruity, surely moreish. Good!
