does not count  Dec 19, 2001 One of the few dark beer brands made in Finland. Not probably the best, but still drinkable!

Sep 12, 2005 Bottle. Very dark brown (almost black), with huge foamy, lacy brown head. Roasted aroma of caramel and perhaps some dark chocolate. Silky smooth, palate a bit sticky. Roasted coffee and malt sweetness in flavor, as well as some hoppy bitterness, and a roasted, slightly bitter dark chocolate finish. Delicious, stout-like beer.

Aug 3, 2003 Subdued aroma: Hops, lemons and a bit bubblegum.
Nice dark brown, full creamy head. Tastenotes of chokolate, dark sugar and roasted bits.
Lightbodied, exits fast.
A topferneted Schwarzbier? I thought this was a porter, oh well :-)

Almost opaque. Tanned creamy head. Aroma sweet and coffee. Starts bitter, medium thin, sweet toffee and roasted malt, some bitter hops in the end. Just too thin to be excellent beer and needs more ABV but otherwise complex enough and one of the best from KOFF brand, like a little brother of brewery's world famous Porter.(6/5/7/4/14 3.6)
Re-rate: (Bottled, BB 03/2005)
Opaque black with tanned brown medium head. Roasted malt, rubbery aroma. Roasted, slightly sweet and medium-bodied. This is not "an ale" but more like "Schwarzbier". (6/5/5/3/14 3.3)
