Hazy golden color. Aroma of old beer. Some malt taste, like… old beer. A pity, it’s just better than the average lager.

An unclear orange beer with a white head. Both the aroma and flavor are sweet with notes of malt and caramel. For what it is - I found it quite OK.

Bottled(500ml). -this is porter only by name, and not even near it by characteristics (taste, appearance, etc.). Clear amber coloured, small beige head, vinegar nose, mild roasted malt and slight caramel aroma, very sweet flavor, in general much too sweet

[Bottled] Cloudy pale amber, brief head. papery oxidized aroma. Pleasant soft maltiness and decent body, but cardboard dominates heavily. No bitterness.

Deep gold colour; dense, fine yellow head, very unstable. Outspoken grainy nose, chalk poultice, very faint fruit-acid aroma. Mostly malty-grainy taste, but accompagnied by a roasted-burning taste & sensation, bit cornflakes-like. There is a metallic hopbitterness, but rather late to reveal itself, neither very longlasting. Light to medium bodied, bit (coffee)creamy, milky texture. A rather raw, rustic lager. It’s sweeter than the roasted flavour and the metallic taint allow. I found it unbalanced, really.

Thanks to Envane who sent me this months ago!! Deep amber/brown color. Rather transparent and light colored for a Porter. Light tan head. Sweet malty aroma. No chocolate or other roast malt aromas present. Light sweet flavor. Much like a good amber ale. But a disappointment as a Porter.

Thanks to Envane for this trade!!! This poured out with a dark yellow color and some haze under a large eggshell white head. The aroma was very subdued, but had a balance of malt and hops that was not unpleasant. The flavor was again in balance with the malt and hops and it went to a lightly bitter finish. The mouthfeel was unusual for a Pilsner. This was a medium body brew with a very creamy mouthfeel. There was a slight aftertaste that was sweet corn, roasted on the grill, with lots of butter. Interesting beer.
