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.

(Keg at William K Kurvi, 20171103) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized and lightly brown. Aroma had vanilla, vineousness and burnt malts. Palate was full bodied and dryish with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, vineousness, spiciness, vanilla, ash and bitterness. Aftertaste was vineous and bitter. A brew taken over by the spices.

On tap at Speakeasy, Tallinn. Looks pitch black in the dim light from the candles at Speakeasy. A modet beige head is on top. Spicy and roasty aroma with coconut, cardamom, dark chocolate and mild vanilla notes that gives me barrel aged associations. Sweet, spicy and flavourful with well integrated alcohol. Quite balanced and certainly enjoyable. [P#75]
