Uit een flesje. Bijna zwart bier, schuim lichtbruin, helaas niet heel vol. Rook in het aroma, ook wat caramel. Zachte rokerige volle smaak, mokka. Prima.

(Keg at Cafe Pacifico Kalevankatu, 20251217) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized and lightly brown. Aroma had smoke, ash, burnt malts and dark chocolate. Palate was medium bodied and dry with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, smoke, ash, liquorice and bitterness. Aftertaste had burnt malts, smoke and bitterness. A tasty burnt brew with quite subtle smoked features.

Black colour, mediumsized beigeish brown head. Aroma is toffee, some toasted and mild cherry tones with some smoked wood and mild chocolaty tones. Flavour is chocolaty, some mild toasted tones with a bit wooden and a bit mocha as well as smoked wooden tones to it. Smooth and nice. Mild spiciness. Drank at room temperature, and nothing to regret, worked really well.
