Bottled. A golden beer with next to no head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of alcohol and fruit, but also a light metallic note from the alcohol. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel, fruit, alcohol, and metal, and the body is quite thick.

(Can 50 cl) Clear, yellow with an off-white head. Sweetish aroma of malt and alcohol. Medium body with sweet malt notes and a brutal finish filled with bittering hops and alcohol. Hard to imagine, that this is an ale. It really resembles a primitive European Malt Liquor. And it’s a joke that this beer is now marketed in sophisticated 75 cl bottles as an exclusive product. One must laugh. 060507
