Thanks to my Secret Summer Santa MisoW for that bottle. Looks nice. Beer in the glass brownish, nice head. Starts malty, light roasty, some earthy hints. Light hoppy background. Dry-malty finish, a bit moldy, not too much. Quite drinkable. Nice!

Flaška(ďakujem, Imro!):Hazy, chestnut-amber coloured, small and persistent off-white head, slight traces of infection over a caramelly and bitter nose; moderate bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied; slightly lingering bitter-caramelly finish not without some traces of infection. Quite good, when not infected…

1L bottle @ Tampella, BBE 30.10.2013
Aroma is unpleasant with bush leaves, lactic acid and a feeling of contamination. Also some syrupy malt. Flavour mas malty tones, some syrup, metal, plastic notes and a vichy-like feeling. Also bitter bush leaves. Rather short flavour and thin palate, feels like a bad non-alcoholic malt drink.

1000ml bottle
BBE 30.10.2013 - Pours dark brown with a small white head. Aroma of yeast, some off-notes, malts and caramel. Taste is malty, slightly stingy and bready with hints of yeast and bitterness. Finish is smooth, slightly bitter and malty with hints of stingy off-flavors. A bit strange, perhaps slightly contaminated?

Flaška (diky, Cuso!):Light amber coloured, hazy, small and stable off-white head, sweetish-malty nose, some sweet fruits detectable, a veil of hops is waving in the background; light to moderate sweetish-bitter flavour, pretty light bodied; increasing bitterness in the slightly lingering fruity and caramelly finish. O.K., at least drinkable…

[Thanks to MisoW]. Bottled. Brown colour with minimal and quickly diminishing beige head. Aroma is very light caramel with notes of yeast. Flavor is very yeasty, light notes of nuts, mild bittery with a little sourish in the final.

thanks to MisoW for the 75cl bottle. Shared with Rian. Dark amber colour, fresh slightly sour smell, peppermint. The beer starts very smooth, Nice earthy yeast. Very malty, not very bitter. I imagine a bit of mint-flavour in the beer as well - don't know if I'm completely wrong with it. The aftertaste is long, velvet-like malty and nicely hoppy. --> Very good and highly drinkable beer!! --> 13/13/13/13
