(Bottle 40 cl) Courtesy of faroeviking. Clear, reddish brown with a small, off-white head. Sweetish aroma of burned caramel. Light in body with burned caramel accents and a little low in carbonation. No bitterness. Presumably this is recommended for breastfeeding Polish mothers... 171207

(Bottle 33 cl) A Polish low alcohol with caramel sounds like kind of a scary thought, but then it’s neat to be pleasantly surprised. Clear, dark brown with a warm, reddish glow and a creamy, beige coloured head. Sweetish, lightly smoked flavours with notes of roasted malt and caramel. Basically this is what we call a "hvidtøl" (table beer) in Denmark and a rather pleasant one of it’s sort. If any artificial sweeteners are added I don’t detect them. 081005

Bottle. Pours a clear deep brown colour with a medium well lasting light brown head leaving a good lacing. Aroma of burned caramel. Fair mouthfeel. The flavour is very sweet with well roasted caramel, toffee and some roasted malt. Sweet caramel slightly bitter finish.

Bottle. Deep dark brown colour with a medium ratjher short lasting head. Very sweet roasty malty aroma. Flavour is very sweet with roasty malt and plenty of caramel and toffee. Like a Danish Hvidt Øl.

Big light beige head. Deep dark red body. Sweet papery malty roasty aroma. Sweet mild lightly roasted milky malty taste with coffee notes. Absolutely no dryness whatever. Papery roasty aftertaste. Interesting. Tastes more like wort than beer. Very bland. (0.5l bottle in Krakow at the Rynek.)

400ml bottle. Ruby deep, lasting beige head. Odd cabbage and candy sugar aroma. OK in mouth, lots of candy sugar. Bit sweet. In fact too sweet. No real hop.

Fantastic soda, er, beer. This was so rich, sweet and caramelly that it was addictive. Lotsa caramel flavor and not at all reminiscent of beer. More of a soda. I couldn’t taste the 0.5%.

The aroma is sweet and malty with caramel, brown sugar, and everything dark and sweet with no hops or alcohol just a hint of coffee and raisins. The appearance is brown with a thin head. The flavor has no alcohol just brown sugar, raisins, and astringent coffee bitterness. The palate is thin. I really think this is a no alcohol malt beverage not a low alcohol beer.

pretty much what faroeviking before me said - very sweet malty dark, little head, no lace. long sweet finish. dont pick up the roasty part tho. got this a year or two ago and no off characteristics

Nice head and a dark brown color. The aroma is like a Danish Hvitdøl and so is the flavour, that is extremely sweet and cloying. It has weak notes of licorice and a lot of malt and there is a weak bitterness in the middle of the flavour. It’s too sweet, I prefer a Danish Hvidtøl.
