(Keg at Pikkulintu, 20191210) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized and lightly brown. Aroma had burnt malts, coffee, espresso, creaminess and sweetness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were coffee, burnt malts, sweetness, espresso, ash and bitterness. Aftertaste had burnt malts, espresso and bitterness. A nice burnt brew with complex coffee notes.

Bottle from Systembolaget. Slight sweet wee smell. Roasted taste for sure. I'm not sure I get a huge amount of coffee to be honest. It's okay. It improved however over drinknig, becoming more coffe like, aroma improved as did palate. Saved from disgrace at the last minute. (30/6/19) ----- Can from Beer 52. Strong boozy flavour. Sophisticated taste. Slightly lame ending. One of those beers thst seemed better before I slowed down. Long ending. 3.1 to 3.4
