Medium offwhite head. Clear deep reddish amber body. Wooden resiny fruity aroma with spicy notes. Dry dusty resiny citric taste with spicy notes. Mid-bodied. Sharpish mouthfeel. Dryish resiny wooden aftertaste with orangey spicy notes. Very resiny, but fresh and clean. Nice. (0.4l draft at brewpub. Name is wrong, though: Trotskij is the Norwegian transliteration of the name. In English it should be Trotskiy or Trotsky.)

On tap at Crowbar. Very dark with a reddish hue. Mild roasty aroma with spices and hints of hops, chocolate, coffe and fruits. A bit sweet and lightly spicy with a fairly dry and pleasant finish. Smooth and enjoyable (2012-12-20)

Slightly dark golden colour with a fine white head. Hoppy and light fruity aroma. Medium body. Moderate sweet and a fine bitterness. Nice fresh hoppy flavour. To me this could have been a pale ale. Nice session beer.
