Jul 1, 2009 Black pour with a dark brown head. Nice roasted malt aroma. Nice roaasted malt flavor, some dryness at the end. It has a little sweetness. Alcohol is not noticeable. A very good Baltic Porter at a very decent, affordable price.Some lacing on the glass. The beer clung to the side of the glass.

Jun 27, 2009 Pours a black body with a tan head. Sweet creamy chocolate malt with lighter caramel and some vanilla. Creamy body with a lighter hoppiness and a dry mineral finish. Light coffee roast and a light warming.

Jun 26, 2009 Can’t beat the appearance of this for my nickel. Thick and black and tan head. Strong aroma of prunes, coffee, soy, cough medicine and sicky sweetness, oh yeah, rock on. Palate is a touch thin and a bit of a disappointment, roasted, nutty. As it warms its better. The hop and malt profiles increase nicely and the palate’s not so thin anymore. Sweet and viscous as it warmed. Oh I’m liking this better and better.

May 31, 2009 Bottle. Poured black with thick beige head. Much lacing. Powerful aroma of walnuts, caramel and melt. Flavour is complex blend of walnuts, caramel, roast malt and a hoppish edge. Rich lasting finish. Good with the old songs.

does not count  May 29, 2009 330ml bottle. Had it in room temperature. Pours nearly black with a nice brownish head that also seems to last quite long. Aroma is strong roasted and quite good actually. Flavor begins sweet malty and advances to a nice, roasty finish with some coffee also. Very nice, definitely the best finnish beer I’ve had so far.
