Bottle, 75cl corked. Close to black in the glass, with a dense, finger-thick light tan head. Licorice dominated aroma, with some smoke notes. Roasted malts, honey-hints, some peat and dried fruits. Prunes. The flavor has a good dash of licorice, with prunes, peat notes, a good dash of honey and some dark, heavy toffee. It’s full-bodied, lightly warming and semi-sweet. Lasting roasted finish with honey, toffee, prunes and a smoked hint. Interesting and quite tasteful, but sort of messy. 170107

Grand tasting at Craft Islington with Hackobock. Thanks to Danny. Almost clear amber - brown beer, thin tan head. Palate is smooth and semi dry, decent carbonation. Soft and dry dark malts, lightly tangy. Trace of dark chocolate. Fair bit of smoke, smooth though. Tangy fruity finish. Not bad.

Bottled. Deep brown colour with a mediumsized fluffy beige head. Aroma is nicely toasted with some chocolate, roast and mild toffee + alcohol to it. Flavour is smoked wet wooden with some mild meaty, chocolaty and alcohol notes to it. Finishes quite ashy. Kind of ok Baltic Porter, although a bit on the boozy side (a.k.a. lacking the normal balance of a BP). Still rather nice.
