Bottle. [thank you, Myrup]
Pours utterly black with a thin, creamy film of light-brown foam. Powerful aroma. Lots of dried fruits, plums, raisins, some grapes. Behind that, there is good chocolate, roasted malts and a little coffee. Medium carbonation, super creamy mouthfeel. Flavour is very nice! Good sweetness, fatty malts. Lots of soft roasted tones, some coffee and chocolate. Light viniousness with a little oak and port quialities. Toffee as well. The aftertaste is long and lingering with the alcohol carrying it far and long. Great beer.

0.5 l bottle, picked from the brewery, thanks Hannu N and Timo A!. Black color with small tan head. Sweetish, roasty, earthy and grassy aroma with salty licorice and barnyard. Bittersweet flavor with coffee, chocolate ,salty licorice, barnyard, raisins and plums. Fairly warming yet soft alchol note. Very rich artisanal and original "farm house" stout, with an odd earthy-barnyard note.
