Tap at Koht. Black colour, brown reflexes, minimal head with decent lacing. Aroma is some resin from American hops, not too aggressive. Apart from it the beer tastes Belgian: dried fruit, mild coffee. Medium bitterness, medium sweetness. Full body, feels heavy. Yeah, it?s not bad, but I wasn?t very impressed.

33cl bottle from SIP veini- ja õllepood, Tallinn. Pours very dark brown, close to black, with a lasting, black head. Roasty aroma with dark, bitter chocolate, caramel, dark fruits, citrus and other hoppy notes and hints of alcohol. Fairly sweet, but feels balanced still. Not too easy to drink, but quite enjoyable. Warming alcohol, nice bitterness. Tasty sipper.

Bottle (from koht), batch 170, BB 12.01.2019. Pours dark brown with dark beige head. The head stays for a moment. Aroma is burnt sugar, fruits, butter, diacetyl like notes. Flavor is sweet and harsh bitter, more burnt sugar and some burnt rubber, fruits, citrus, alcohol, and more diacetyl like notes. Finish is harsh burnt bitter and ash. Drinkability is really bad, the rating started from 3+, but as I drank it, I started to struggle more and more. It challenging to finish the whole 0.33L bottle by oneself. Overall: too harsh, no balance, not even comparable to good imperial stout or good beer for that matter.
