33cl at Open Baladin is a translucent black with brown edges eurh some off white head. Nose has malt and toast and caramel. It's not bang on for Irish Stout. Not offensive either. Creamy in the mouth. A little more licorice than I wanted. Made it feel foreign.

Roast, watery, non describable beer. It's not bad, but it doesn't stand out either.

Magus, röstine ja linnaseline õlu, veits vesine ja nats maitsetu.

Cask at the brewpub in Milano. Pours very dark coperbrown, nearly black. Creamy tanned head, very stable. Smell is bit coffee, very 'lactic' , creamy, extreme diacetyl. Mild burnt. Taste is very unbearable diacrtyl. I've never tasted this off flavor this intense. A big buttery, almost milky ( spoiled milk, but not sour ) blast coveres most of the tae. Underneath this all some roasty notes, but the beer really is lost to this. The waiter assured me this is 'because it's a stout ' and had no clue what diacetyl was. Either the staff sucks, or this beer does, but he repeatedly told me this is the way the beer tasted. Always. I'm used to far far better by baladin....
