Zingy hoppy aroma, fruity too. Sticky burnt taste. Huge zingy mouth, tons of roasty choco body. Burnt finish. A bit too alcoholic, but not offensive. A little sticky too. Potent. Prefer the other two. Miksu (1348), Jyväskylä, Finland Oct 19, 2008 0.5 l bottle. Pitch black with dark tan head. Coffee, licorice, raisins, dark bread and salty licorice in the aroma. Sweet very pronounced coffee and licorice flavor with raisins and bread. Warming, too carbonated palate. Tasty and rich brew, this could be more complex though, now it is mostly about coffee and licorice.
