bottle from kihoskh, pours a dark brown, with a small bubbly dark brown head that soon disappears. dark caramelly, hard roasted malty aroma, bitter nuts, whisky or dark rum, wood, faint vanilla. Flavor is quite sweet, boozy, malty, sweet malty, brown sugar, dark caramel, there isn't really any finish, it just sweetens out into the aftertaste, all the flavors come together somwhat confusingly, i would almost dare to guess that the barrelling did too much to the base beer, and sort of over-spiced the whole thing. (I am not sure I have tasted the base beer, but those I have tasted from pohjala has been very good) in the far, far aftertaste i detect a little bit of smoked notes, similar to those in thisted limfjordsporter but much more in the background, could be the toasted rye flakes or use of a little bit of smoked malts. No problem at all, but could be part of my initial confusion, making the dark caramel notes seem weirdly bitter.
