Robe is far from beautiful...I stead of a bright amber colour it has a cloudy brown robe. Generous dirty white foam. Smell is malty with sweet dry biscuits aroma, candy fruits and caramel. Taste has bread and cereals aroma. Quite round body, pleasant. Slightly sour and dry. Medium bitterness. Pretty persistent. I have doubts about the golden medal...maybe I haven't been lucky with my bottle.
