Taster on tap at Uba ja Humal, Tallinn. Pours hazy brownish without any head to speak of. Looks like watered out plum juice. Aroma is rather fruity with some slightly funky notes. Moderate sweet with fruity flavours and pleasant acidity. Rather nice!

Tap at PBF. Assertively wild, lots of barnyard, complex too, with also some acetic character. Not much pear, actually I do not get it at all. Good but not great, rather simple even if well done.

Bottle from somewhere in Zagreb, with BuckeyeBoy and Drinkøteka people. Very pungent aroma, some pear initially, but going acetic, fruity, light glue, huge tartness. Soft taste, light tartness, bit sour, salty, undefined fruitiness, but pleasant.

0.33 l bottle shared with Ogi at Ambasada, Zagreb. Hazy amber to ruby red, small off-white head. Aroma is candy, plum, cherry. Funky, vinous. Hints of pear add up to the freshness. A metallic note. A touch of cheese. Hints of plastic phenols emerging. Intense sourness. Vinous, very sharp, sour cherry juice, soft vinegar notes. Background is musty, slick, cloying, intense. Hints of oak. Lasting sour finish. Slightly too intense overall.
