Pours more of a hazy gold then the advertised amber and has a white head with ok retention, actually laced the glass....oop’s, now the head is gone...strange....anyway..Aroma is of strong skunk and some malt. Flavor was supprising given the aroma.....is a nice sweet malty beer, but appears to have an old hop taste with slight bitter and leaves a somewhat undesirable after taste, I appreciate a nice bitter in beers, but this bitter taste like skunk. For being a 7%+ beer, it doesn’t seem to have much of an alcohol presence stick out, it seems well balanced on that note. Palate is medium with high carbonation. This isn’t a horrible beer, it’s pretty tasty at first.....why must they put this in green bottles to be distributed??? It just ruins the quality and makes it a cheap beer....just my thoughts.....

Jul 4, 2008 11.2oz bottle. Pale filtered golden color, with a fading head. Green aroma of hops and alcohol. Very Saazy Eastern-European flavor going on. The heavy malt body is well complimented by the hops. Not an IBU bomber by any means, but pretty decent for what it is. Worth trying.

Jun 29, 2008 Didn’t know what to expect out of this one, didn’t even realize it was a malt liquer until I tasted it. The pour was very golden with a medium white head. Initial taste is sweet, you can taste the malt. After taste is bitter, actually not bad for a malt.
