500 ml brown bottle, a gift from gunnar, thanks. ABV is 5%. BB date 30.12.10. Golden colour, moderate white head. Strange aroma of cooked vegetables, decaying fruit, malts and dust. Soft mouthfeel. The flavour has much the same elements as the aroma, dry and dusty, pretty weird - but some fresh hops in the finish make the drinking experience more tolerable..

Clear dark brown beer. Crisp light palate. Pleasant mildly chocolate malt with just a touch of roastiness. A little fruity hop peeping through at the end. A superior dark lager!

Bottle. Dark, murky brown, small tan head, solid lacing. Aroma of chocolate and black pepper, and odd combination. Taste is like root beer mixed with lager, a very strange sweet and bitter combination that lacks balance.

Bottled, from Bratislava. Clear deep golden, rich head. Evident oily Earl Grey tea aroma with some sweaty hay. Mid sweet with clean, rounded mouthfeel. Richly hoppy but rather shallow. Marked sweaty bitterness.

(bottle) Clear, mahogany colour with a beige medium-sized foamy head. Roasty malty and bready aroma with notes of caramel and a touch of molasses. Sweet flavour with a tinge of bitterness, medium bodied with a moderate carbonation. Solid roasty malty and slightly molassy taste, drying out towards the roasty bitter finish with mildly hoppy notes. Like a diluted dark Bock. Good. 30.IX.10
