Bottle at Hopner. Pours dark red, nice foam top. Aroma has some grapefruit, bit of rye spices recognizable beneath it. Taste has some more hops that are balanced with rye spice and roasted malts. Grapefruit also strong, rough, not very fragrant. Overall rough IPA, no fruitiness, no sweetness spots. Fits well with the concept I guess.

From tap at BD Helsinki. Smell of tar, ash. Black colour, tiny brown head. Aroma of coffee, licorice, cocoa, roasted malts, alcohol, oak. Probably the heaviest body I've ever had in imperial stout. Oily texture, slightly burning palate. Semi-flat carbon. Awesome.

Tap @ Speakeasy, Tallinn. Pours amber with beige head. The head doesn’t stay. Aroma is intense fruits, citrus, mango, malt. Flavor is sweet and bitter, citrus, mango, caramel, malt, alcohol. Finish is grapefruit-pine bitter with some alcohol. Overall: feels rough, but I still enjoyed it. Update: tried some bottles and it still rough around the edges, but for some reason I really really like it (it’s now my favorite Põhjala brew), so bump +2 to the overall.

On tap @ Brewdog Helsinki. Poured near black with a thin espresso head. Raspberry, marmalade, chocolate notes in aroma, roasted malt. Flavor has raspberries, chocolate candy sweetness, molasses and some light red wine notes. On the sweeter side but very enjoyable still.
