330ml bottle. Jet black colour with minimally late awakening, small to average, creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, tan head. Roasty, slightly ashy, smoky, dark malty aroma, notes of dark chocolate, wood ashes, a basic, minimally bready touch of pumpernickel, weak, resinous and herbal hoppy overtones with a touch of woodruff, eucalyptus. Taste is roasty, slightly ashy, smoky, dark malty, slightly bitter hoppy, notes of dark chocolate, cocoa, wood ashes, a touch of burnt caramel, burnt coffee, mild roasty and hoppy bitterness, some subtle rye spiciness, pumpernickel, a mineral touch among the ashy aspects, resinous and herbal hoppy overtones again. Oily texture, smooth, minimally greasy, simultaneously minimally dry palate, fine, dense, soft, creamy carbonation. Nice dirty flavours, the Roquefort cheese in the field of Baltic Porters so to speak - pretty decent.
