The aroma is very strong - the first rush is an insane amount of dried dark fruits - plums, dates, raisins. In the background you can find a little tobacco, some herbal notes, toffee and hint of mint.
First taste is sweet, starts juicy - the same dried fruits that gradually become more caramelly. More roasty notes, coffee liqueur, nuts come into play in the middle-taste. Aftertaste is long and warming, caramelly sweetness is now balanced with the roasty bitterness.

330ml bottle. Opaque, darkest brown colour, no head; some very late awakening, tiny bubbles build a ring at the rim of the glass and disappear. Minimally alcoholic, nutty, caramel malty and minimally piney, herbal hoppy aroma, notes of caramel, some toffee, mint flavoured toffee. Taste is sweet, alcoholic, caramel malty, leafy, herbal and piney hoppy, notes of caramel, toffee, mint flavoured toffee, some treacle; warming, alcoholic finish with fruity hints of of plum wine.
Viscous texture, smooth and soft, slightly cloying palate, fine, scattered, soft to flat carbonation.
Condensed, sweet and alcoholic, not overly complex - some really flattering flavours, but somehow more sauce or liqueur than beer.
Could profitably be paired with vanilla ice or even be used as replacement for coffee liqueur - hardly to drink up without sharing.

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.

Bottle (from Lehe webshop). Pitch black colour with a small beigeish brown head. Aroma is plum, some barrel, mild alcohol, dried fruits and some mild figs. Flavour is alcohol, some some barrel tones, dried fruits, figs and some burnt sugary tones. Rather boozy.

Bottled 330ml (webshop)
Dark murky brown colour, tiny beige head. Aroma is not strong: toffee, some alcohol, some toastyness. Full-bodied. Very sweet, syrupy. Roastyness, vanilla, toffee - very malty and sugary. Low carbonation makes this slow sipper. Not easy...

Bottle via Uba Ja Humal. Full body, low carbonation. Cloying sweetness, just too much. Low bitterness, shitloads of caramel and chocolate. Lots of warmth too, too much of that too. Too much of everything, hard to drink, off balance. Lots of dried fruits. Not great, not terrible.

Bottle shared. Very dark brown. Huge amount of raisins, maple syrup, licorice, toffee, figs, candy sugar. Very sweet but in a natural way, medium bitter. Full full bodied. Tastes like they boiled this for a veerrry long time. Surprisingly good.
