Backlog May 2009. Deep reddish-brown body under a dense, beige head. Aroma has light roasted dark malt, beef-stock and coffee. Taste is dark, roasted malt, some caramel, some chocolate and moderate bitterness. Medium body with average aftertaste. Not great, but not bad either, quite nice in a way without pushing any limits.

Bottle from Euro Swap 3 [thanks to Rosenbergh] @ home. Very dark brown color, medium sized tan head that diminishes fairly quickly but leaves good lacing. Aroma and taste malts, liquorice, chocolate, nicely bitter, some vanilla. A bit thin bodied maybe, suitable carbonation. Like it.

33cl from Alko, Helsinki as Kievari Portteri. Pours close to black in colour, with a beige head. Malty and roasty aroma with dark fruits, chocolate and hints of metal. Medium sweet with flavours of roasted malt and a light bitterness. Certainly on the sweet side, but fairly well balanced and quite easy to drink. A bit thin, but nice enough.

6.5% coca-cola pour, tan head. Roast chocolate malt but with a bit of hay notes. The taste is bitter dark chocolate, roasted coffee & a pretty smooth mouthfeel. Not bad for under 3 euros!

Laitilan Kievari Portteri, from Alko. Smell of roasted malts. Dark brown colour with brown head. Aroma of coffee, ash. Also disturbingly metallic. Some licorice and a faint of alcohol as well. Bitter. Lively carbon.

50 cl bottle @ Nurmo. Rated on 27.12.2008
Aroma is malty with caramel, some syrupy notes and hints of licorice. Flavour has well roasted, bready malt, some salty licorice and syrupy notes. Just too flat and watery.
