500ml bottle sourced from an East European supermarket in Bridgwater. Pours clear dark brown with zero head. Aroma: sweet wort with a hint of caramel. Taste: like a kvass, syrupy sweet, bready, caramel, it's like a shit dandelion & burdock. Light bodied, no carbonation, sweet cola like finish. Terrible!

50cl bottle from a Rimi Hypermarket in Latvia. Pours clear golden with a small, short-lived, white head. Grainy aroma with cooked vegetables and hints of caramel. Sweet, grainy and not particularly pleasant. Not much bitterness to speak of either. Below average.

Half-litre bottle: BB 18th Aug 2017. Drank at home 10 days before then. Red hue to the brown body, thin beige topping. Aroma had some red berries and figs with plenty of malty esters. Taste was a sweet malty mess, body was weak and overall I struggled to finish my bottle. Not good!

500ml bottle: BBD 20th Aug 2017. Shared with my wife at home late on 28th July 2017, poured into two ’La Chouffe’ badged tulip glasses. Both glasses held a bright, clear golden bodied beer, the heads an unlasting white affair. Malty, grainy nose, sweetcorn also in the aroma. Taste is semi-sweet malts/grains and again sweetcorn. Body depth is thin and weak, not a beer I will be seeking out. Obtained from a store in Boston, Lincs.

500nl bottle from European shop in Rotherham - Brown with red tinges, no head. Malty and sweet aroma with some slightly roasted hints. Fruity taste with raisins and some roasted notes with hints of liquorice and aniseed. Nice little beer, but rather flat.
