Bottle at CBJ Tasting. Opaque medium brown. Thin beige head clings to the rim. Aroma has spice and light dough. But more spice. Booze. Underlying caramel. Light-medium bodied. Oily. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish.

Fairly sweet, rich and chewy, jammy dark fruits, raisins, bit of caramel and toffee, suggestion of bourbon, wood, brown sugar. Pretty heavy but not bad.

Bottleshare at CBJ. Thanks to LKS. Near clear deep amber beer, small pale tan head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Soft rich malts, sweet toffee caramel. Cinnamon-ish spices and a little ripe fruits. Rich and amusing but, pretty sweet.

On tap at Goblet Zagreb. Blackish coloured, minimal off-white head, alcohol caramel and dried fruits in the nose. Sweet malty, caramel, alcohol, dried fruits, notes of barrel and touch of vanilla with rather sweet finish. Alcohol noticable but balanced.

Mahogany colour, minimal creamy beige-ish lacing; aroma of raisins and dried sour cherry maturated in cognac, plum jam, dough, some chocolate, cocoa powder, some whisky and slight soy sauce; taste is the same with spicy alcoholic aftertaste; amazing "beer"
