Bottled (from Alko Web). Black colour with a small beigeish brown head. Aroma is roasted malts, some cocoa, mild chocolate, roast and a bit ashy tnes with toasted toffee. Flavour pretty much follows the same pattern as the aroma. Silky smooth, even though a rather big abv.

33 cl bottle @ St. Mary's Park. Batch #191, BBE 13.04.2022 Aroma has red wine and toasted malt. Flavour has salty licorice and mild cocoa tones. Too salty for my taste.

Smell of malt, red berries, some liqueur. Black colour, tiny brown head. Aroma of chocolate, red berries, coffee, roasted malt, rye bread. Intense bitterness. Lively carbon. Great stuff.

--Sample, thanks oh6gdx! -- Very dark brown, small head. Aroma of chocolate and prunes. Sweet with full body and rounded mouthfeel. Prunes and licorice, peppery and warming. Long bitter finish. Roasty and intense on alcohol.

(Bottle, 0.33 l - BB 14.04.2022, from Alko, 20210603) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized and lightly brown. Aroma had burnt malts, dark chocolate and cocoa powder. Palate was full bodied and warming with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, dark chocolate, metal, cocoa powder, ash and bitterness. Aftertaste was burnt, hoppy and bitter. A nice burnt and dry brew with soft warmth from ABV.

Bottled 330ml (wax cap, Alko web) Dark brown colour, small beige head. Aroma is bready with some chocolate. Medium-bodied. Not very malty, sweetish, rye bready, chocolaty. Feels less than 10%. Solid Baltic Porter character. Easy sipper, but for its ABV it could be a bit more robust.
