Bottle, 25 cl. Dark brown beer, with light carbonation and a off white head. Aroma = sweet fruity with a light sourish touch. Malty palate, sweet fruity and creamy taste. Light bitter ending sweeter, dry. Not so bad.

Dark brown colored, little light brown head. Weird tangy aroma with biting spices, ash and some sweetness. Medium bodied. Flavor is also bad with skunky and biting tanginess, lemon and some yeast also there. Aftertaste dries strongly.

(Bottle 25 cl) Courtesy of henrikb. Pours a very cloudy reddish brown with a tall, somewhat rough beige head. Fresh and fruity - apples - aroma. Medium body with a sweet and somewhat unclean malt profile. Roasted, lightly tart maltiness without much bitterness. Rather heavily carbonated. An odd brew. 181106

An unclear orange-brown beer with a huge fluffy light brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with quite a lot of fruit combined with a dusty hop note. The flavor is sweet malty and very fruity, leading to a dry bitter end that also encompasses a dusty hop note.

Bottle at Kulminator. Dark brown with a very big head. Sweet honey aroma with some spiciness. Flavours start and end sweet, lots of caramel. well-carbonated, but light body. Not very complex, but pleasant enough.
