Rich and smooth Baltic Porter brewed with coconut, vanilla, and cardamom.
Taste: The taste of a smooth and creamy vanilla milkshake combines with the chocolate malt character before the palate is flooded with oily coconut and sweet oats. Finally cardamon comes through, balanced by a delicate spiciness from the hops - the body transporting you to winter nights surrounded by family.

Kicsi, nem túl tartós fekete hab, fekete szín. Vaníliás, kakaós, csokis illat, kardamommal vegyítve. Csokis, kakaós, vaníliás, kardamomos ízek, némi kávés és kókuszos aromával. Enyhén édeskés, testes, alig szénsavas, közepesen keserű. Nem rossz, de nem igazán simulnak össze az ízek.

330ml bottle. Jet black colour with late awakening, average, frothy, diminishing, minimally lacing, dark brown head (in fact probably the darkest head I've ever seen on a beer). Intense, sweet-ish, nutty, spicy and dark malty aroma, predominant notes of coconut, hints of cinnamon, then coconut, some chocolate, then coconut again, wait, there is something more hidden under the coconut... yes it is - ah, gone, coconut again; cardamom overtones. Taste is roasty dark malty, again widely disguised by notes of coconut, cautious hints of cinnamon. Soft carbonation, minimally sticky palate. Maybe this is heaven for the coconut worshipper, but since I'm not... clearly overdone.

Bottle. Pours Black with a creamy beige head and lacings. Roasted nose and flavor with some evident alcohol. The spices, cardemum like, I wasnt a fan of. Liked this a bit less than normally with their Baltic porter series. Boozy.

Ik proef wat munt. Heerlijk soft dit. Põhjala stelt ook eigenlijk nooit echt teleur.

Bottle from Mr. Hop. Pitch black colour, dark brown foam. Nose of roated malts, cocoa, coffee, vanilla, spices. Taste is roasty bitter with sweet vanilla and coconut hints. Very well made but not really my taste.
