Bottled 500ml (Alko web)
Opaque colour, mostly vanishing head. Ashy toasted aroma. Light to medium-bodied. Toasted, ashy flavour, touch of chocolaty. Smooth porter but otherwise a bit meh, not Olutpaja's best brews.

--Sample, thanks oh6gdx! -- Black, mid sized head. Peppery calvados aroma with some coffee and dark chocolate. Fairly dry with near full body and firm, rounded mouthfeel. Apricot brandy coffee and mild chocolate. Warming bitter finish. Elegant and brandyish.

Keg @ Pikkulintu Ruttopuisto, Helsinki. Poured slightly unclear and golden in color. Orange fruity hops with Mosaic like blackcurrant notes pushing through. Light bitterness finishes off. Nice!
