Opaque petroleum black, moderate beige head. Weak lacing. Powerful malty aroma. Sweet treacle, moderate roastiness. Fruity esters, vanilla & cream. Full body. Sticky texture. Medium sweet taste. Big maltiness. Cream. Dried fruit. The touch of alcohol on ending adds a negative feature to the general very good impression.

Clear deep golden. Medium sized white head. Average retention. The aroma is lollipop, corn, spice and a slight banana touch. Medium body. Sweet malty taste. Candy, sunflower seeds, spicy yeast. The ending is somewhat hollow due to low hopping. Still a pleasant blonde ale.

500ml bottle. Pours pink with a massive gushing foamy pink head. Aroma is cherry, almonds. Taste is cherry and moderate bitterness. You can actually taste the base beer. Still, can't say that I enjoyed it.

BOTTLE 37,5 CL. Pitch black, thick espresso head. Rich chocolate aroma with sticky dark tracks and toasted marshmallows, notes of grassy hops and just a hint if spicy alcohol - very good and clean. Big luscious sticky chocolate and molasses, maple syrup. Yeah, it’s sweet, thick and somewhat sticky, but hell, tasty! And there’s just enough drying palate numbing alcohol and hop bitterness to balance. Very good.
