Tap-to-can from Craft Beer To Go (thanks Ania V.)! Pitch black, solid greyish-tan head, big, medium retention. The aroma is creamy, grainy and soapy in a way, interesting, slightly sweetish, not hitting the right chords for me, but not bad. The taste, however, makes up for it - creamy, chocolatey - both milk and dark smooth, not too sweet, drinkable, vaguely soapy/herbal, but nice. Ends quite dry really, borderline astringent, but it remains quite drinkable. The best Valens so far!

Rerate at BeerYard 2. Much cleaner, lovely peach/bubblegum touches in the taste and the aroma, clean now. Light, tasty. Opatovina Fest. Murky dark golden-amber, lasting off white head. Aroma... Diacetyl, grain, peach. Taste, soft malty and mostly sweetish peachy, trace diacetyl. Okay.

On tap at Hop In. Deep redbrown, tan head. Creamy light aroma, raisins, husky maltiness. Creamy malty taste, light raisins. Okay, solid, clean, not flashy. What it’s supposed to be.
