Bottle at ČP, yaaaay! Never expected to try it. Murky brown body, off-white head. Huge, enormous peaty aroma overwhelming everything else, solid maltiness had to be backing it. Soft peaty malty taste, slightly lighter than expected. And did I say it's peaty? Because it is! Very much so! If you love peat, this is your beer. Provided you can find any anywhere, of course...

Bottle at the Zichovec barrel tasting. Med-full body, high carbonation. There is no going around the shitloads of peat smoke that define the character of this beer. Really assettively smokey, with some supporting caramelly maltiness and light dried fruits. The smoke starts realy intense, declines pretty fast too though. Weird, not my favourite, still pretty good though.
