Slightly cloudy reddish brown pour. Hops and rye smell. Juicy malty, hints of that clean the spice.

(Keg at Punavuoren Ahven, 20250519) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized lightly brown. Aroma had burnt malts, chocolate and mildly grass. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, grass, dark chocolate, sweetness, hints of ash and soft bitterness. Aftertaste had sweetness, ash, grass and bitterness. Too much ashtray like flavours. Also, a little bit watery. Good looking.

Two-thirds of a pint at the Dead Crafty Beer Company (Liverpool) on 15th May 2025. Hazed golden look, wispy white head. Citrusy nose and taste, glad I found a new Virginia tick while in Liverpool.

Вроде стаут как стаут, есть кашица овсяная, но нету глубины. Но на раз можно попить в пабе. Немного шоколада сухого.
