Thick, syrup. Heavy bitter, it feels like it's super sweet underneath, but bitterness covers it all. Pure dark chocolate. Roast, coffee. Thickness is just ridiculous. Chocolate covered burnt barley oil. Great fun, and pretty tasty too. After I finished it lingered for ages. Mostly feels like a superheavy black barleywine.

(Bottle, 0.33 l, from Õllepood No 2 Gambrinus, Pärnu, 20180923) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized and lightly brown. Aroma had burnt malts, vanilla and cocoa. Palate was full bodied with rather low carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, vanilla, cocoa, dark chocolate, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was burnt, boozy and bitter. A surprisingly brew with adjuncts and high ABV.

330 ml. bottle @ Koht – Tallinn. Black, small mocha head. Nose is overly roasted, too umami, soy sauce. Taste is luckily more basic sweet vanilla, big vanilla oddly mixed with soy sauce, molasses, vanilla, dates, sugar, lingering almost artificial vanilla. Soy sauce body, strange mix but not bad overall.

Bottle courtesy of Tonis, even though his name appears nowhere on the bottle. Almost opaque dark ruby maroon color, small beige head. Aroma of vanilla and coffee. Taste is sweet rich dark chocolate, espresso, vanilla. The vanilla doesn't overwhelm, which it sometimes tends to do. Syrupy mouthfeel. Very tasty and no booziness at all.

Bottle, probably from SIP, bought it some time ago. Pours dark brown with some light brown foam, reducing into some thin line. Huge cocoa in the nose, soft and immersive, sweet and stuffy. Some vanilla but decently balanced. Taste has more of that vanilla, stuffy cocoa and lots of toffee sweetness. Hoppy as well, adding some rougher edge to it. Quite enjoyable sipper, you should drink it with some chocolate to get the best out of it.

33cl bottle from Sip, Tallinn. Pours dark, dark brown with a tiny, beige head. Roasty aroma with cocoa, wooden notes, dark fruits and hints of vanilla and licorice. Medium sweet with medium flavour intensity and a noticeable bitterness in the finish. Warming alcohol, but well integrated. Nice one.
