Jan. '17. A 0.5 l bottle, thanks Marko! It poured a clear ruby body with a small head atop. Quite pleasant aroma, lightly vinous, some bread, hints of caramel and brown sugar. Flavor was straightforwardly bitter, with dry caramel, biscuit, bread... Simplistic, not bad, but a typically bland representative of its style. Medium bodied with longer finish that showed some distinct cardboard-like bitterness. Not really a big fan of the style, okay for low ABV I guess.
