Bottled 750ml, alc. 8 % (BB 09/2009). Clear deep ruby color, small beige head. Strong aroma of sour milk, toffee and fudge. Caramelly, toffeish, a bit hard mouthfeel, alcoholic. Diacetylic? Quite classic winter beer ... personal ... good? I am not sure if I’d drink this in the regular basis.

Beautiful, reddish brown beer with big blond and head. Aroma is sweet, some berries, grass and slightly dusty. Flavour is malty, peppery, spicy and surprisingly slighlty roasted. Quite nice and slipery to drink with nice carbonation. Balanced beer without mistakes, but on the other hand, there are not so much to remember or actually there is a beautiful appearance.
