Black color with a fine thick beige head. Ok intensity in the aroma. Medium + body and a soft carbonation. A bit dry texture. Coffee, citric, roast and a bit to much licorice in this one.

On tap at Pudel, Tallinn. Close to pitch black with a small, beige head. Aroma of roasted malt with fruity and citrusy notes, licorice and hints of dark chocolate. Medium to moderate sweet with medium flavour intensity and bitterness. Fairly balanced between the hoppy and roasty, but nothing to exciting going on.

Tap. Sheffield Tap. Deep, espresso colour. Thin, dense, sticky, tan head. Upfront coffee, treacle and vanilla chocolate. Hops kick in after. Pine needle and light resin. Taste is roast malt bitter. Gets big and punchy. Full body. Nicely smooth. Long, roast, resinous bitter finish. Tasty gear, more like a big, hopped up stout.

On tap at Tap East. 6% black beer lasting tan head. some roasty malts. Bit too fizzy. Black ipa? Possibly. Some hops. Dark chocolate but mostly burnt roasted malt. Decent.
