Not good. Not exciting. Not much character. Not much of anything. There are far better beverages in Estonia.

Angry fist of Santa tasting at Chris_o’s. Pale gold, thin white head. Hot alcohol, not much else. It’s just a bit obvious. Not great, but ok on finish.

Bottle, 8%. Not much aroma. Dark golden colour, white head. The flavour is typical European strong lager, quite sweet with a rough hoppiness and rough alcohol finish. Not among the best ESLs.

Big offwhite coarse head quickly shrinks into a thin coarse ring with a hissing sound. Yellow body. Dense, oily apple and malt aroma with alcoholic notes. Deep, alcoholic and chalky apple and malt taste with considerable alcohol heat. Surprisingly oily mouthfeel. Bitter malt aftertaste with notes of straw. Well. This might be better if colder, but that’s not really a good sign. (0.5l bottle.)

Bottle in Estonia. Darkly golden beer with a light head. The aroma is lightly malty and the flavour is mainly malty, slightly fortified and lightly dry. Overall a quite strong, malty and slightly fortified tasting beer.

Bottled, thanks oh6gdx! Clear golden, near no head. Aroma of honey with a dash of alcohol. Sweet and harshly grainy with lots of honey to hide the alcohol. Medium bodied with sticky mouthfeel. Resiny finish.
