330 ml bottle. Pours almost opaque and brownish with minimal beige head. Nice aroma of chocolate, roasty and caramel malt and dark fruits. Alcohol is little bit coming through though.

Aroma was really good but taste was a small disappointment. Drinkable but bit too burned for my taste.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 BeerBaboon (967) - FINLAND - FEB 20, 2012
Musta ja hieman vaalean ruskeaa vaahtoa muodostava olut. Tuoksu on paahtunut, makean maltainen, salmiakkinen ja kitkerän suklainen. Maku on salmiakkinen, kahvinen, paahtunut ja yrttinen. Suutuntumaltaan öljyisen liukas ja melko paksu portteri.
