On tap at Tsypa na Bessarabtsi, pours a hazy dark copper golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lactose upfront, with tart dark fruits, diacetyl and vanilla. Flavour unfortunately confirms this, with lots of vanilla, lactose and light diacetyl, which thankfully is more subdued the more you drink. Flawed but not bad.

On tap at Pilsner Bar, pours a cloudy blonde with a large white head. Aroma brings out wheaty notes, light clove and a hint of esters. Flavour is quite crisp and lacking esters for a hef, with biscuity malt, light clove and some grassy wheaty notes. Not tasting like a hef to me really. It's decent.

Flavour isn't actually that bitter, but more muffled, with lots of earthy hops, lots of messy yeast, and bready malt. It's a bit messy and off style. Weird.
