Katowice 5/10 2019. 50 cl bottle from Zabka. Orange version of Zywiecs usual label design with a crowned Lion in gold.

Pours clear, golden amber with a very big white head. Settles as thin almost transparent layer of foam just covering the surface of the beer. Moderate Lacing.

Aroma is malty sweet with a dark, sweet fruitiness. Caramel, brown sugar. Plum in a State of fermentation. Very light roastiness.

Light carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, lightly tingling texture.

Flavor has a fairly strong sweetness followed by a moderate bitterness. Aftertaste is sweetish. Lingers for a bit.

Not the most impressive take on a Belgian Ale. I would expect more intensity and a higher ABV to reach that goal.
