Draught @ IHME Aroma is strong on coffee; very nice roastiness. Also a sweet malty feeling. Flavour is dry with coffee, ash, tobacco. Lingering salty licorice in the finish. Some buttery notes occur in the middle of the glass. Unusual, very dry and ashy stout but still has some flavour components of east european porters. Not sure if I like this or not.

Rated at Kitty's Public House. Roasty, dry and earthy with some grassy hops, hay, licorice and chocolate, bitter finish. Surprisingly balanced and complex

Keg @ Kitty´s, Helsinki. Poured pretty much black in color. Thin light brown head. Inviting aroma of salty licorice, notes of chocolate, ashy notes and roastedness. Flavor follows suite, short bitter finish that grows as the beer warmed up a bit. Delicious porter all in all.

(Keg at Kitty's, 20231019) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized and lightly brown. Aroma had burnt malts, dark chocolate, ash and grass. Palate was full bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, earth, dark chocolate, ash and bitterness. Aftertaste was burnt, hoppy and bitter. A pleasant burnt brew with classic hop notes.
