Can. An amber beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, sugar, and spices. The flavor is sweet with notes of spices, sugar, and malt, leading to a dry finish.

Can from the Republique Monoprix. Pours orange/gold with a transient white head. The aroma hints of absinthe, if memory serves. Near med body. Flavor is herbal/absinthe. Actually seems an improvement over the regular 86 drek. No heat for all practical purposes.

Pianka srednia szybko opada ale pozostawia o dziwo wasy na szkle. Kolor jasno bursztynowy, Smak slodki, melasa syrop na kaszel i troche becherovki. Absint wyczuwalny zwlaszcza ziolowe posmaki. Konopie takze czulem. Od strony ziol jest calkiem niezle ale zbyt syropowate i slodkawe jest to piwo.

can from palma. clear yellow, bubbly fluffy offwhite head. Aroma is malty, boozy, herbal, some of the same apple like flavor as in an energy drink. flavor is boozy and herbal. warming alcohol.faint fruity note, dried fruits, tastes as if it was a dark colored beer. herbs makes it sort of resemble belgian stuff, but it is basically a herb spized booze bomb.

It diverts to the worse from the original. It’s almost the same, but more watery, flatter, less powerful and just developing a hint of herbs (nothing to do with real absinthe, btw). I’d stick to the original, rather.
