500 mL bottle.
Pretty much as expected.
Pour is a slightly viscous, dark golden orange body. Head and lace are 100% missing.
Nose gives a strong alcoholic whiff and a nasty solvent aroma.
Taste is all alcohol and incredibly sweet and cloying. I suspect that the role of this beer in Eastern Europe was/is as strictly an alcohol delivery vehicle, and this is all it is. In that respect it’s a great success. In every other possible way it’s an complete failure.
Mild afterburn in the chest and a horrible, solvent like finish complete the picture.
Nasty. Drainpour. Period.
