Good, lacy, greige head over hazed cognac-coloured beer. USA hops, bit of liquorice, cakey malts to real cake, rosewater and lytchee. Sweet-balanced, malty and fruity, USA-hops flavour but virtually no bitterness, making it too much slanted towards the sweet. Finish has - again - very sweet fruit. Slick, sweet, and yet it gives a fresh impression, minty, it’s a bit like liquidized Stimorol. Stimorol beer? Unfortunately, it peters out a bit, certainly warming up. Still, overall it’s a rather unusual, original beer.

Bottled from Mitra. Dark color, medium lasting brown head. Aroma of roasted malt, some rye, nice toffee, mocha, dry nuts. Thick creamy texture. Good bitter taste, nicely balanced with roasted grains and smooth sweet caramel. Slight sweet palate. I like this brew, gonna get a whole crate of it at my local Mitra!
