"The beer is yellow in colour with a thin white foam top. First off it tastes somewhat bland but as the experience continue there is a nice crisp maltiness. But just as quick as this taste appears it disappears again." - beersoftheworldproject.wordpress.com

Bottle at a tasting, thanks to Cuso. Thin body, moderate carbonation. No trace of roastiness. There is only shitloads of caramel, and I mean shitloads. Also solid oxidation going on. Slightly metallic as well. Not a stout by any means. Not great not terrible.

Bottle at a tasting, thanks to Cuso. Med-light oxidized element, otherwise defined by caramelly maltiness in the character. Hops in the background, though moderate bitterness present to balance the malt. Drinkable, okay, considering what it is.
