A pale, bottom-fermented "double-malt" beer. A specility strong lager. A full-bodied, rounded beer with a good, long-lasting head. A good bitter-sweet balance. This beer is characterised by strong malty aromas with an initial sweetness complemented by a final intense hop aroma.

I was a bit disappointing about this beer. The taste in the mouth is malty, smelling the alcohol but it is watery, it is missing hop, rated in 2016, from one coop, Domodossola.

(Bottle) Golden amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty nose with crisp-bread, tropical fruit, orange and honey. Malty, sweetish taste with notes of crisp-bread, tropcial fruit, orange peel, honey and a mild herbal bitterness in the finish. More than medium body, with a certain sweetness. Fairly normal strong macro lager, but quite drinkable. Enjoyable.

Tap at Beer&Food Attraction 2024, in Rimini, Italy. Pours loaded gold, fairly transparent, with fine white foam. Aroma is cereal and some honey. Body is average, with good carbonation. Taste is medium-high bitter, alcoholic. Final is average. Overall, the alcoholic feeling is excessive.

Bottle from Systembolaget. Clear golden with a medium white head. Sweetish with malt, some crispbread, grain and notes of honey. Warming alcohol in the finish. Not a favourite.

Bottle, 0.33l. Clear golden pour, thin soapy white layer on top. Minimal lacing on the glass. Average on the nose, grains, stale grass, hints of honey. Malty background, a bit on the sweet side. Medium body, soft carbonation. Soft mouthfeel, chewy texture, slightly oily. Quite decent on the palate. Taste and aroma pretty much as expected. Sweet with lingering alcohol bitterness. Caramel malt, honey, stale grass. Herbal notes, grains. Sugary. Mild metallic notes. Medium alcohol presence that gets stronger as the drink warms up. Short lasting finish, dry, slightly boozy. Mediocre. No surprises here.

0.33 l bottle from Vrutak, Zagreb. Shared with little Dina. Clear darker golden, medium firm white head, sparkling. Malts, sugar or corn syrup, floral, soft caramel, metallic. Soft texture, medium body. Aggressive bitterness, alcoholic. Sugary flavours, cheap liqueur. Light finish. Strong, boring, dull. Aroma wasn't that bad.
