Bottle 0.75l, more than four years aged. (Thanks for Bamsen78 review, I'm glad I'm not alone in trouble with that cork fortress.) Lightly cloudy, deep gold colored. AROMA- aged, vinous, a bit funky, sour apple, tart berries, wood, sour apricot, leather, flowery. FLAVOR- smooth, neutral, moderately sour, slightly bitter, nice berries, apricot, white grapes, some herbal hops, touch of wood, slightly funky. Medium bodied. Perfectly aged, perfectly balanced, delicious. The best from Lobeč ever.

Bottle, as good as impossible to open - I damaged two corkscrews, chipped the top of the bottleneck and pruned the cork before the 25-minute-long proces of removing it from the bottle was over - so f*** you very much, dear brewer, for making my life easy and my experience memorable. When it finally arrives, the mixture is cloudy amber with a stable off-white head. It has a dry aroma of citrus, with sweetish notes of malt and yeast and hints of caramel. And it tastes just like that, too, with its semi-Belgian, vinous and dusty flavour with sweetish notes of yeast and malt and hints of caramel. Mild, acidic aftertaste - ends with a whimper, not a bang. Nearly no carbonation, which is a shame, for a flat dusty sour is worse than a carbonated one. Well, so what profound secrets did your majestic cork guard, do or die, dear brewer? Nice try, Lobeč, but better luck next time.
