Nawet ciekawe piwo z Ethiopi. Niezbyt nachalny cukier i karmel, pianka zadowalajaca lekko bezowa i kremowa, trwala nawet. kolor dosc ciemnawy, piwo przypominalo klasycznego dunkela. Udany wyrob jak na egzotyke z Afryki.

Bottle beer from Beers of Europe. Piwo bez etykiety z owijka na szyjce. Brak informacji o zawartosci alkoholu itp. Ale wyglad ma ok, pianka spoko, spora i trwala nawet, kolor ciemnozlocisty tzn nie slomkowy. Zbozowo kukurydziany posmak zmieszany z cukrem. Nic szczegolnego poza dedykowanie piwa na grill lub goraca plaze.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Poured a slightly cloudy/dull amber brown colour with a small off white head. Aroma is of light malt, and some fruitiness. Quite sweet, light bitterness coming through in finish. Medium bodied, average carbonation. OK.

Bottle split at Chriso Easter tasting, thanks to Daniel, 04/04/15. Orange amber with a moderate off white covering/swirl. Nose is brown bread, caramel, paper, sweet ntoes, dark fruits. Taste comprises paper, slightly washed out feeling, light fruit, sugar cane. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. So so affair, little depth or balance, overly sweet and watery. Had worse country ticks mind, better than the bulk from the pale lager camp!
