330ml bottle [Thanx Claudius!]. Cloudy amber colour with average, firm, frothy to creamy, minimally lacing, white head. Caramel malty aroma with a fruity touch of plums, additionally a herbal note like mint (supposedly the gentian). Taste is initially slightly watery, minimally herbal, later with fuller, minimally fruity malt basis, in the finish herbal again and minimally spicy. Not completely bad, but too light bodied and not overly complex despite the special ingredients.

Very deep red to brownish beer, clear initially, under a very creamy pinkish head. Spiced, coloured malts, finely roasted grains. Watery coloured malts, really giving the impression of being watered-down. Bit of liquorice, soupy (coriander?). Watery MF in a grand way. Pretty worthless try. Thanks all the same for giving the possibility to try, Stefaan!

Muddy dark red-amber color. Dusty aroma, some band-aid. Anonymous Ale, with a reasonable body structure, with traces of berries and ashes. Dryish final and light artificial liquorice. One more bad beer from Sornin.

Cloudy amber color, with a green hue. Simple aroma, light beeries too. There is a light but not natural blueberry flavor (it’s not brewed with fruits, but with fruit extract), light residual sweetness; the beer behind has a good body; in the final the concotion turns into a light liquorice impression. Chaotic mix, not good.
