--Canned at PBF XIV -- Clear golden, small head. Aroma of diesel and marzipan. Very sweet with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Syrup, marzipan and alcohol. Sticky, peppery finish. Is there really no better use for rocket fuel in Ukraine?

Bottle: pours gold with white head. Aroma is not horrible for what it is. Taste is boozy but nothing like the purported percentage. All in All, OK.

0,5l can shared @ Alppila. Pours clear golden with a medium head. Aroma is honey and alcohol, some malts too. Flavor is cloying sweet malts with honey and hops. Very difficult to drink after the decent aroma.

Capped 500 from Total Wine in Vacaville, CA. Pours clear copper with a transient white head. Aroma of amberish malt with spice notes. Med body at least. Flavor is the aroma with a slight hint of fusil oils. Not very sweet. Not very bitter. Surprisingly drinkable, though deadly at 12%.

500 ml bottle from Total Wine. Pours a crystal clear amber color with a khaki head and decent retention. Surprisingly great lacing. Boozy and medicinal malt liquor aroma. Very strong in your face malt liquor flavor with a harsh medicinal finish. This tastes like industrial cleaner mixed with beer. Hard to drink. Medium body. Slick mouthfeel. Medium carbonation. Not bitter. Not good. The lacing may actually be etching my glass.
