Clear golden color, small white head. Caramel and light hops in the nose. Pale, caramel malts, light fruity hops. Boring session bitter. Too sweet. Fresh summer drink maybe ... Miksu (2241), Jyväskylä, Finland
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jul 14, 2009 Draught at Plevna. Bright amber color with creamy head. Aromas of flowery hops and caramel. The taste is equally malty and hoppy with flowery-lemony hops and biscuity-caramelly maltiness. The carbonation is high making this gassy and less drinkable. Hop profile could also be more complex, now it is mainly flowery. TEJA (297), Stockholm, Sweden

Very blossomy aroma, some sharp fruitiness. Weird taste - some dinkel, some cola, plenty of fruit. Lively carbonation, almost fizzy palate. Cola retronasals too. Finish has cola too. Cola’s a bit fucked up, but it’s very drinkable. Very lacking in the usual Plevna full-bodied and gingery character, but variety’s good.
