Bottle (thanks mom!). BB 01/01/2009. Deep amber-brown color with medium, slowly-diminishing, beige head. Malty and slightly bready aroma with some caramel and a bit of chocolate. Sweet caramelly flavor with some toastiness and a drier finish with some alcohol and light herbal notes. Medium-bodied with a quite carbonated mouthfeel. Could be really good without the alcohol taste in the finish but still tasty anyway.

I was suprised to find this beer from the shady alley minimarket in Central Bucharest, just few blocks away the place where Nicolae Ceauşescu gave his infamous last speech. It was now mid-July, +32C outside and this was the last can of Ciuc Winter they had in the fridge. Beer has light amber color, big foamy white head. Industrial apple-fruity and alcoholic nose with metallic notes. Mouthfeel is very thin, palate is watery. A bit fruity, then with alcoholic warming. Not disturbing malt likka, it is just not very intereresting. Malt profile is really thin.

Clear golden color, small steady white head. Metallic, a bit buttery Czech-pils like aroma. Very carbonated. A bit acidic. Quite tasteless, sweet malty with distant hints of butterness. Close but no cigar.

Chestnut brown color, small beige head. Alcoholic, caramelly, toasted nose. Caramelly rounded mouthfeel. Quite pleasant balance of alcohol, toasty malts and sweetness. This is a bit like Saku Tume. So far the best Romanian beer I’ve had.

Yellow color, not much head. Grainy, papery nose with sticky pear aroma. Watery ... Grainy, sweety malty, harsh finish. Some distant skunky hops. Crap.

1l-PET bottle. Clear golden yellow, large and persistent head. Hoppy nose. Well-balanced beer, perhaps too well-balanced so that it becomes a little boring. Neither very hoppy nor malty but very drinkable.

Bottled - PET. Deep golden, small head. Lightly apply nose with some bread and alcohol. Sweet and fruity, medium bodied, lightly syrupy. Not the most exciting beer, but fairly well balanced, and without much off-flavours.

A friend of mine brought this beer from Romania. The bottle looks good. The beer tastes in the beginning like a bockbier, but much to dry, it really turns nasty. Not good.

Bottled (thanks omhper!). Golden colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is not much, mainly mild malts and hops. Flavour is really harsh hops, with not much else. Bad.
