Deep dark brown coloured body with ruby highlights and a deep dense tan head - perfect for the style! Aroma of a good baltic - meaty, mushroomy, caramel, roasted malt, coffee and a touch of chocolate show very well. Medium-bodied; Strong roasted malt flavours with a good backbone of chocolate and the strong savoury flavours come out as well - with some subtle alcohol near the end. Aftertaste shows some complexity with a tiny bit of spice, caramel and mostly mild tastes. Overall, a damn good baltic, rivaling even Zywiec, also from Poland. When I first saw this one, I wanted to try it, and I’m definitely glad I did! Perhaps this aged nicely in the bottle, but I really liked this and would recommend it to anyone! I sampled this 500 mL bottle purchased about two years ago from Whole Foods in Portland (Downtown), Oregon, drunk on 05-August-2008.

wow . what a change from their excellent 8,5% beer. 50cl bottle. Caramel notes, sugary malt, grainy with wheat and barley. Little hoppy taste. This one didnt cut it for me.

Bottled (BB 02/2009)
Bottle from a kiosk at Slussen Underground. Golden color, small white head. Diacetylic, herbal and cardboardish nose. Malty, lightly grassy hoppy flavor, hints of diacetyl, somewhat grainy flavor. All flavors are not so clean, but this beer made for Swedish markets has much more character than the most of 3.5 % beers made in Sweden.
