Limenka 0,5L - s obzirom koliko ssam platio limenku nek ova ocjena bude za priču oko piva više nego za samo pivo.
poprilično žestoko, pomalo kave, tamne čokolade i alkohol nad svime time.

Can from Goblet ZG, huge thanks Šlogy! Pitch black body, not much head. Old barrel notes, vanilla, brown sugar, some spice, cinnamon and alcohol. Lean, dry, spicy old barrel taste with soft maltiness, low cocoa, light coffe-like maltiness, sharp in the finish. Not bad, but for this price it ain't worth it, even if I paid for it...

0.5 l can shared with Ogi at Ambasada, Zagreb. Oily dark brown to black. Minimal head. Aroma is licorice, hints of soy sauce, dried fruits, nuts and lots of solvent. Fusil alcohols and ethanol. Strong, alcoholic. Sweet, sticky. Flavour is sweet chocolate, nutty, roasty, oak, alcohol, intensely roasty bitterness. Still kind of soft and drinkable. Finishes sweet.
