330ml draught at Hell Hunt, shared with Finn. Black in the glass with a rustic shade, poor lacing and bare naked surface. Lightly roasted dark malty aromas, promising. Impacts of dark chocolate, liquorice, and dark bread to the taste buds. Lightly roasted malty tail. Medium bodied. Decent. (Tallinn, 07.11.2025).

300ml draught at Hell Hunt, shared with Finn. Clear amber-gold body, fragile lacing, tiny white head. Moderate smell of mid-sweet malts and dried fruits. Similar taste of mild caramel malts and mid-dry fruity hops. Drying close. Fair enough. (Tallinn, 07.11.2025).
