Golden colour. Deep apple sauce aroma and flavour, balanced acidity, syrupy sweet; it has a bit less alcohol feeling than the Lodowa Gruszka, but it's also less deep and rich.
Excellent.

Deep golden. No head. Little bit of legs. This is spicy and sugary on the nose. The palate has a balanced acidity, nice spice, touch of sugar, There's a bit of alcohol and wood sort of notes, which provides a fair bit of balance.
