660ml bottle (thanks FatPhil). Clear golden color. Medium size, white head, stays. Slightly sour, signs of infection, buttery in aroma. Very high carbonation. Plastic, malty, grainy, sour in taste. Sharp acidic aftertaste. Clearly infected.

660ml bottle (Zmogsala2015) bottle 56/66
Opens with a pop, but not a gush, as feared. Poured with a worrying level of carbonation. Fairly Does have a nice saisony aroma, a bit of that farmhouse grunge. Palate too fizzy. Lemony sharpness from the infection that caused the carbonation. Really nice malty barley taste, has the acidic lithuanian grains that give a lot of character to the taste. Do like the grains. Remarkably light, no heaviness at all, almost like a 3.5% session/lunch beer, not even the slightest sign of 7.5% - plus 1 for that. Should have drunk it younger, I guess, but there was no BB and it was 7.5%, I thought it would be more robust.

Good and clear strong warming ale. Color is not very good, but taste feels good alcohol.
