FatPhil (5970) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - MAR 8, 2008
Bottle (Helsinki Airport)
Dark brown, healthy tight head, red glints. Rich burnt caramel aroma at first, broadens to spicy and peppery hops. Not as sweet as expected from both the aroma and it being a brune. In fact pretty hoppy and refreshing - not sticky. No taste of alcohol. Mellow hoppy malt finish. Very solid brune.
