Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso resta attratto da liquirizia, nocciola, caffè e cioccolato. La finezza olfattiva è molto elevata ed elegante e la maniera in cui permane è considerevole. Il manto birroso superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma color marrone castagno, cremosa e che resiste poco. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana fine. Il colore è scuro impenetrabile. Il corpo è strutturato. Il dolce è medio in buon equilibrio con l'amaro medio. La forza gustativa è elevata e la permanenza è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è intenso. L'aroma in bocca porta i segni di miele, cioccolato, liquirizia, nocciole tostate, frutta secca, pane tostato, un accenno di resinoso quasi balsamico e agrumi.

Thick beige to greige head, fine carbonation in near-black brown beer. Sweetish, very chocolatey nose. Bit of moss, dry roast, rust/ironoxide, dry autumn leaves. Sweet, roast bitterness arriving later in the taste. Finishing drier, and again rust/FeO in that finish; bitter chocolate. Well-bodied, creamy to chewy MF. Medium carbonation, yet a slight CO² acidity. Good, honest Baltic Porter.
