Bottled 660ml. -Courtesy of Hrabren, shared with him & Marko, thanks! Pitch black coloured, medium sized brown head, dried fruits, licorice and caramel in the nose. Dried fruits, licorice, caramel, light nutty and touch of wood with boozy finish. Not so easy to drink.

660ml bottle courtesy of Hrabren, shared with Ogi as well as him. 12%, 2024. Heavily oxidized sharp aroma, orange candy, soy sauce, raisins, metallic touches, bit vanilla, dried figs, light pepper... oof, complex, unusual. Lean, dry taste, raisins, roasted hazelnut touches, some orange touches, rye notes, some spicy alcohol touches. Solid, but the oxidation is too high, and the beer is too rough.

0.65 l bottle in a fancy box from Berlin Airport Duty Free shop. Shared with Marko and Ogi. Dark brown, small beige head. Aroma is dried fruit, soy sauce, caramel. Alcohol present. Full body, sweet, too sweet. Lots of dried fruit. Sticky. Caramely. Light toasty and hints of roasty notes. Some black fruit. Also nuts, nougat. Sweet finish.

Small tan head; jet-black beer. Non-sweet liquorice, I drop /I, alcohol, spirit. Hints at New World hops (?). More liquorice in the mouth, rubber, burnt chocolate, caramel syrup, even toffee, bit (sweet) walnut. Full bodied, alcoholheat. Slick, viscous, rich. Burnt caramel going on in the aftertaste. Quite disappointing, unrefined for all the pomp. Txs to Stef!
