Bottle thanks to Dan. It pours clear deep amber with a decent white head. The nose is sweet fruits, raisin, sultana, fruit cake, estery, water and honeycomb. The taste is bitter, toasty, grainy, paper, boosty alcohol, sugary, bread, caramel and fruit cake with pretty much no finish. Light body and fine carbonation. Weird warming booze vibes persists. Very thin indeed. Meh.

Bottle from Baltic Branch Dover. Golden with a beautiful, fluffy white Head. Grainy and also hoppy nose. Light-bodied, sweet malty start with a spicy touch (cinnamon?), bitter hops towards the lingering bitter finish. Bitter_sweet overall Impression. Strange at first, give it time and it’s still unusual but really nice.

Bottle shared at the Cad’s 10th Anniversary Tasting - CBC Clerkenwell, London. Thanks to The Peter. Pours a compelling clear amber with a frothy tan head. Big sugary bread and caramel aroma. A heartily sugary flavor follows, with plenty more bread and caramel, some sugar syrup, berries, brown sugar, toffee. Light in body with average carbonation. Syrupy finish with some nice caramel notes, ripe berries, maple syrup. Great kvass.
