General66 (96), Streator, Illinois, USA Apr 29, 2008 500mL bottle shared with Illini08 and nimrod. I am embarrassed that this beer came out of my refrigerator. Poured a pretty mahogony color with a small white head that disappeared very quickly. This beers look was by far its best quality. The aroma was almostcompletely absent. The little that was there consisted of malt. The taste was also very bland. It had the consistency of water and I actually tasted a lot of spring water along with a little bit of malt. This beer did not necessarilly taste bad, there was just absolutely nothing going on with it.

HarryFlashman (419), Chatham, Kent, England Oct 5, 2008 I was rather surprised by the appearance and taste of this. Almost black and the taste is very stouty. Fairly bitter and dry and hints of coffe. Plenty of taste for such a low strength. Ober (403), Best, Netherlands Oct 4, 2008 On draught at Plachetnice Plzen. An almost black colored beer, with a thick foamy beige head. The aroma of caramel and a little bit chocolate, there are malts and fruits. The taste of little coffee, dry and fruits like raisins. It has a light bitter aftertaste.
