Bottled 330ml. -Courtesy of Marko, shared with him & hrabren, thanks! Black coloured, small beige head that went away fast, alcohol and light leather in the nose. The taste is alcohol, rhum notes, touch of leather and licorice with boozy finish.

0.33 l bottle thanks to Marko who brought it from Prague, shared with Ogi and him. Dark brown to black, small beige head. Alcohol, dried fruity, cognac, burnt, prunes, oak, a tart touch. Smooth, intense licorice candy in the flavour, some caramel, dried fruit, dried apple or pear, spice, burnt. Too sweet. Soy sauce. Some alcohol, lacquer. Medium body, smooth texture. Some tartness. Light finish. Messy, although not bad.

Bottle from Base Camp. Very dark brown-black head, almost no head, some beige traces. Enormous, not necessarily pleasant aroma, very alcoholic, barrel-driven, mead-like, some rum I guess, some herbal notes popping in... interesting, but not thrilled. Soy sauce, licorice, light phenolic touch, huge alcohol, papery, lean, dryish... oh my... something went very wrong here. Warming I guess? Just weird, messed up.

Draught at Beer Time. Weak fruity aroma. Cloudy yellow colour. Small white head. The flavour is citric and lemony. Not much mango until the aftertaste. Dry and refreshing finish.

Tap at Beertime. Hazy yellow-golden body, white head. Sickly lactic notes on tart passion fruit and vague mango, more texture-wise there. Lean, lactic-tart taste, milky, some passion fruit, but subdued, as is the mango. I mean, it's okay, but flat and subdued, and not a Berliner but a typical kettle sour with fruit. Meh.

Tap at Kulovy blesk. Not very good. Actually quite bad. Loads of alcohol burn, assertive acetic acid. Moderate wood with unpleasant astringent edge. There is literally nothing good left in this beer at this point. Some bourbon character, but very very lacking in malt department. I did not want another sip after the first one.

Tap at Kulový Blesk. Pitch black body, extremely lasting tan head. Raisins, red grapes, tart, chocolate notes in the aroma, but mostly old barrel / cellar. Sweet, smooth taste, heavy cellar notes, damp, raisins again, red wine touches more than bourbon perhaps. Pretty drinkable, but not perfect.
