Hevelius Kaper

Brewed by Grupa Zywiec
Style: European Strong Lager
Zywiec, Poland

The aroma is very sweet - no wonder with the 9.1% ABV - and it has notes of peaches and yeast. The color is dark amber and it has a beutiful lasting off-white head. The flavor is also sweet with notes of peach and alcohol. A nice beer to give warmth on a freezing winter night.

Bottle, 8.7%. Weak peppery aroma. Clear amber colour. Big stable tan head. The flavour is quite sweet and peppery. Caramelly maltiness. Some fruit and spice in the finish. Nice.

Polished bronze colour. The aroma is full of pale malt, a little alcohol with hints of caramel and acetaldehyde. Firm, alcoholic body, with lots of sweet caramel and bread malts. Clean, brawny lager with decent balance but little panache.

(500ml bottle) Clear amber body with medium off-white head. Aroma is sweet, corn syrup, honey, nectarine, orange, berry, some alcohol. Taste is moderately sweet, grainy, peach/nectarine, finishing with some butterscotch liqueur. Medium-full body with some stickiness.

Looks good with deep amber colour and big white head. Sweet alcoholic aroma. Flavour is extremely sweet with too much alcohol. Syrupy and sticky. I am very surprised that so many RateBeerians like this brew.

500 ml bottle. Golden coloured beer with a thick white head. Aroma is sweet and honeyish with light cereally character, a bit of orange and faintly herbal hop aroma. The flavour is quite sweet with honey, peach/pear and light herbal flavour. Moderate bitterness. Maibock-like and pretty decent.

Apple cider aroma. Large bubbled white head that dies rather quickly over a clear orange body. Light feeling, like a fruit soda. Light flavor of apples, maple and bread. Dry finish with a big residual apple flavor. Thanks to Joe for sharing.

Bottled: Golden/orange coloured. Not much head, but the head thats present is beige or something. This is a pure alcoholinfusion, that totally spoil the beer for me. I simply don’t like it.
