Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is caramel malt, rye, dark bread, toffee, piney hops, ripe fruits, lots of pine resin. Flavour is above medium sweet and medium bitter. Body is above medium. Fairly heavy resinous hopped Red Ale, slightly rough around the edges but I found it sufficiently tasty.

Draught@Sori Taproom, Helsinki. Deep amber colour with a mediumsized longlasting off-white head, that leaves some lace. Aroma is caramel, some dried fruits, mild toffee and sweetness. Flavour is caramel malts, some floral, dried fruity, mild figs as wel as some alcohol to it. A bit on the boozy side of things, even at 8.8 % abv.

33cl bottle from Sip, Tallinn. Pours clear deep amber with a lasting off-white head. Caramelly and hoppy aroma with notes of pine and dried fruits. Sweet, caramelly and quite hoppy with a deccent bitterness. Still a bit too much on the sweet side for my taste, but certainly decent.

Pours mahogany, bit of foam. Aroma is thick with rowan berries, has this dry dank berry feel to it. Fresh and edgy, you can feel it is not going to be that easy to drink. Taste has bitterness, more of rowan berries, they have this interesting tannin kick that dries your mouth all out, and then you need to drink that heavy red thing after that. Interesting beer and I am actually enjoying it - although probably would not crave for much more. But maybe still....
