Bottle. Dark brown, clear. A bit of dark sour berries, chocolate, and a subtle greenish hoppyness. Body is a bit light, but with chocolate, some coffee. I really enjoyed this. It has a hoppy character that is uncommon in these, but not overpowering. Just enough to make it interesting.

Bottle. Dark amber color with a beige head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee and barnyard. Dry, a bit skunky taste of roasted malt.

Bottle. Pours a dark brown, slightly auburn. The head is surprising large, long-lasting and thick; the color of dark latte. Quite a beautiful beer. Aroma is surprisingly fruity, somewhat toffee-like, even slightly buttery. Fruit toffee comes to mind. Taste is a surprise after the aroma: Surprisingly roasty and very dry. Light fruitiness in the background as well as some pine. Palate is too light, a bit watery and very carbonated. A very surprising beer altogether.

Aroma has sweet roasted malt: licorice, dark bread and fruits. Deep dark red to black, short espresso head. Medium body, soft feel, dry and roasted contrary to aroma, dry and bitter finish. Ok dark lager.

.5l Bottle from Länsiväylä. Pours very dark brown with low head. Aroma is rye bread, malts and ash. Flavor is roasted malts, tobacco, rye bread.

33 cl, bottled. Pours dark cloudy red with a nice beige head. Aroma: Roasted malt, lingonberries, coffee. Taste: Moderately sweet, pleasant roasty bitterness. Palate: Medium body, pleasant carbonation. Nice.
