An almost black beer with a weak and light brown head. Good aroma has lots of gentle smoke, liquirice, roastiness and smoked meat. Taste is dryer and more harsh than aroma, dry smoke, roastiness, some coffee. Herbal and tight end. Medium bodied, mild carbonation. Some tightness in the taste that is slightly bothering, without that this beer would be in the heavy weight class. Good and balanced smokyness.

Draught @William K, kurvi. Pours cloudy amber with a thick white head. Tropical fruits in aroma, pine and marmalade. Flavor has sweetness, gooseberries, citrus. Bitter hoppy finish. Creamy. Slightly heavy at first, but yeah, it is very drinkable. Flawless, slightly too sweet for me perhaps.

Draught @ William K Sello
Pours dark orange with a smooth head. Aroma of yeast, ripe fruits, caramel, toffee and hints of berries. Taste is smooth, slightly yeasty and grassy with some herbal hops, hints of pine, citrus, caramel and malts. Finish is hoppy, slightly yeasty and malty with notes of herbal hoppiness. Pretty good despite the Belgian yeast trying to steal the show.

Draught @ William K. Annankatu
Aroma has resiny notes, grapefruit and mellow strawberry notes. Flavour is sweetish with grapefruit, tropical fruits, caramel and hints of minerals. Also fruit juice. Finishes with lingering herbal bitterness. Refreshing & juicy. Could not locate the spices or Belgian yeast – but perhaps it is not a bad thing. Maku seems to know how to brew IPA.

Tap @ Brewdog Helsinki. Poured dark brown, thin, lasting light brown head. This one got smoke, licorice and roastedness in aroma. Flavor pretty the same, nice balance, could have slightly better body perhaps. Nice smokyness. Good one.

Aroma is nice with smoke, ash, tobacco and licorice. Flavour has somewhat salty licorice, herbs, ash and mellow smoky tones. Finishes with mellow lingering herbal tones Smooth and pleasant, feels a bit watery on some sips though.
