Commercial Description:
It is of a beautiful dark golden colour with a deep lustre. It has the color of honey and the transparency of spring water, as well as an excellent body and taste. It is very well saturated with carbon dioxide and has a pleasant, noble hops bitter, as well as a unique malt-hops taste.

500ml can (Some Park Cafe, Warsaw)
Simple sweet lagery aroma. Deep orange, healthy head lasts a short while. Full sweet palate. Caramelly, and with a pleasant though slightly artificial hoppy bite. Well balanced lager, though some might find it too sweet. The sugar makes this quite palatable - certainly covers the 6.5% well. (4+:3:6-:2+:9+=2.4++)

50cl bottle poured into a lager glass. Medium amber with modest off-white head. Aroma is sweet malt. Flavor is heavy caramel, honey, and slight alcohol. Medium body, light carbonation, sweet finish. Probably the sweetest lager I’ve ever had.

500ml bottle: Dark golden colour with small head. Sweet malty aroma. Taste is similar with caramel and some spice. Alcohol noticeable. Not bad, not great.

Bottle. The aroma is very soft, only light malty. The white small fizzy head is very fast disappearing, the body is dark red. The beer tasted malty, light sweet and the finish tasted a little bit like glue. The body is medium strong with a lively carbonation.

(bottle - 330 ml) Clear gold color with a thin white head. Aroma is sweet and a bit skunky. Very potent. Flavor is pretty sweet and malty at the start with a dry and slightly bitter middle. Finishes surprisingly light with a very smooth malt taste. Alcohol is well hidden.

50cl Can from C1000. Clear dark golden colour, white head. Aroma is sweet, honey, cereal, alcohol, caramel. Flavour is sweet, caramel, honey, a bit fruity, light bittersweet alcohol finish. Medium bodied, soft carbonation. Rather sweet beer, but because it’s all so soft and smooth the sweetness never becomes cloying. Best strong lager I’ve had so far.

Keg 500ml at U Kakpra, Krakow. Gold with white head. At last, not too much carbonation, strong alcohol notes, sweet and quite sticky in character. Richer malts but hardly any hop coming through. Toffee in the background, but a little better than most of the Polish beer so far.
