Sep 5, 2008 Pours a thick deep dark brown. The nose is a strong coffee with subtle chocolate notes. Comes across the palate very similar; but it has a very faint chocolate undertones.

Aug 30, 2008 From an 07 bottle, opened without fanfare, but the head grew anyway. Poured black with a mocha one finger head. Aroma is very malty with smoky/burnt and woodlike smell. Taste is intense, then goes right into bitter chocolate smoked flavor. Aftertaste is a little bitter/dry. Overall, a good representation of a baltic porter.
Tranquillity (1069), Espoo, Finland
Aug 30, 2008 Cool bottle. Completely black body, tiny beige head, small bubbled. Licorice, tar, plums, smoke and candid sugar ion the aroma. Taste really strong for it’s volume, with a dry bitter tone. The taste is not as complex as implied by the aroma.
