Bottle @ home. Rather clear, dark brown body under a decent tan head. Aroma of dark, medium roasted malt, dry fruit, caramel, smoke, licorices or anis, toast and alcohol. Taste is sweet, smooth roasted malt, caramel, licorices, dry fruit, bread and alcohol. Fine body with long lasting aftertaste. Nice with lots of taste, not too typical pastry – feels more natural with malt and whisky barrel flavors.

Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a dark brown foamy head with some retention and some light lacing notes. Aroma of chocolate notes with vanilla and coconut with some light maple notes. Taste is also a mix of chocolate malt notes with some coconut and vanilla with light maple notes. Body is full with good carbonation with not really any discernible alcohol notes. Solid pastry BA stout with great balance of flavors.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

aroma is basically like a lager but with faint herbal citrusgrassy notes, faint herbal notes. I don't know if this is a lager, but to me, it tastes like a slighly herbal, slightly lemongrassy lager. Could be the local malts that add all the color to the aroma. Flavor is malty to sweet malty, honey like swetness, tea or lemongrass like herbal bitterness.
