Dark mahogany brown, pours with a small head that goes away pretty fast. Aroma is weakly sweet, slightly caramel and usual wet cardboard. Taste is soft, watery, some weak caramel. This beer is not disturbing and is drinkable - but lacks any character I would expect from a Christmas beer.

50cl bottle from Selver, Tallinn. Pours Coca-Cola coloured with a very short lived off-white head. Mild malty and caramely aroma with hints of roast. Sweet and caramely, fairly weak in flavour and not much bitterness. Boring, but drinkable.

(Bottle. Thanks to SaintMatty) Reddish brown colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, roasted nose with dark bread, caramel, brown sugar, toasty malt and raisins. Malty taste with notes of dark bread, caramel, roasted, malt, brown sugar and a slightly bitter-sweet finish. Medium body, with some sugary sweetness and low bitterness. Decent but a bit unrefined.
