Bottled 750ml. -Courtesy of Marko, thanks. Dark amber coloured, medium sized pale beige head, sourish and light ashy whiff in the nose. Light roasted malt, some smoke, notes of wood and ash with light burnt notes in the finish. A bit messy brew. Better choice are 330ml bottles.

Bottled 750ml. -Courtesy of Marko, thanks. Amber/brown coloured, minimal off-white head, slightly sourish spicy nose. Toasted malt, caramel, some discreet spices and touch of herbs with notes of alcohol in the finish. So-so.

Bottled 750ml. -Courtesy of Marko, thanks. Unclear yellow coloured, big white head, mild herbal lemony nose. Sweetish malty, light spicy, herbal and mild hoppy with some yeast near the end. Slightly watery but all in all ok brew.

Thanks Mario! Murky light brown body, off white head that stays a while. Sweetish taste, notes reminiscent of smoked malt, dry, slightly salty. Strong taste, huge smokey notes, peaty. Light wood perhaps, slightly salty, light malty notes. Extremely light for the ABV I’m digging this, it’s a good beer.

Thanks Mario! Poured a misty brownish body and an off white head. Caramelly and herbal aroma, soft. Might not be thrilling but it’s pleasant enough. Light yeasty taste, vague vague spice note, vague meaty yeastiness at first that thankfully disappears fast, trace caramel and bitterness, light and quaffable, with the ABV well hidden. Can’t quite guess the herbs/spices, but this turns out to be a nice taste. Solid.

Thanks Mario! 0.75l bottle. A huge gusher, ending up with a misty yellow body and a thick, huge white head thankfully with medium retention. Yeasty and herbal notes in the aroma, soft and creamy. Mild, watery taste, just soft and vaguely herbal. Lacks hoppiness I would normally associate with the style. Drinkable, yeasty touches, just a touch bitterish. Solid easy drinker that might be better off without bottle conditioning.
