Keg at 73 Enid Street, 13/01/23. Black with a tan head. Nose is roast malts, toasted sugars, vanilla, dried fruit rinds, cinnamon. Taste comprises chocolate, spice, charr, toffee, dark malts, mellow barrel. Full bodied, fine carbonation, light drying close with a balanced rising boost. Okay sipper although I don't think it pulls off its name particularly well.

Opaque dark brown beer, decent tan head. Smooth and slightly viscous palate, decent fine carbonation. Smooth rich dark malts, creamy dark chocolate. A modest but rich ripe apple vibe goes well with the not-to-heavy brandy barrel. Smooth and slightly spicy finish. Another deftly brewed Impy from this super brewery.

Pours black, no real head. Scent is full, mild apple, BA profile, sharp ant a bit of acetaldehyde - or is it the actual apple shinign trough ? Taste is sharp, green apple again, bit boozy, mild grainy. Not great. Not at all the quality I expected from Pohjala.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
