Nearly black color. The aroma is a variation of a known theme: dusty burnt malts, this time with a rather pleasant cookie touch, pepparkakor. Dry mouthfeel, roasted and burnt malt flavor, ashes. Too much.

Keg (Bishops Arms, Stockholm)
Jet black, tight keggy cappuccino head. Simple roasty aroma - promises goot things. Soft roasty taste - full but drinkable - no harsh edges. Simple, but also no weakpoints. Finish is oaty stout, and a tiny touch of burntness. Warmer - you get milk and honey aroma.
