Bottle @ Café Hoegaarden. Brownish color, average sized off-white to beige head. Smell and taste malts, lightly caramel perhaps, although hmm...no it's more malt and dark malt bitter. Mostly malty. Amber malt typical flavors as well. Very much malt forward but I like it. Nice.

Bottle from Pivný raj Uhm. Not sure what to think about this one. BBD 10/2019 and I don't think it's okay, acidic on nose and somewhat sour on tongue as well, with some coffee. This doesn't feel right.

On tap at Vrtška 2018 in Belgrade-Serbia. Muddy brown pour (-) with an off-white cap. Nose: pretty empty sadly, far away a reminiscent of biscuity malts. Mouth: easy sipper, no real concept in this, a slightly hoppy finish. Did not really get it, perhaps...

Tap at Kandalló Kézműves Pub, Budapest. Poured a hazy medium amber with a frothy off white head and some clingy lace. The aroma is caramel malt, light red berry fruits, woody hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a fresh crisp dry malt, light spice, light metallic hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

Bottled, shared with Zvone. Dark amber body. Dry malty aroma, with sewery notes sadly, something's off here, Clean, dry grainy malty taste, light light caramel perhaps, lean, vaague citric touches too, but, again, that mild, light sewery note shows up, though less than in the aroma. The other bottle they've tried apparently had similar issues. Will rerate at some point I hope, but like this, it's just nowhere near on par with beers from this great Hungarian brewery.
