UPDATED: JAN 18, 2019 Bottle. Medium brown with light tan head. Smoke, dark wintery fruit, licorice, hint of rye. Smoky rye, strong licorice. A bit tart with smoky finish. Surprisingly interesting but unfortunately has the 'house taste' of StaPa, which may not be good for this beer.

Bottle@summer cottage, from Alko Sastamala, Finland. Medium, sweetish nuances of slightly roasted malts and rye, dry licorice, some tar, a hint of dark fruits. Averagely balanced.

Bottle from Alko. Aroma and taste of roasted malt and some rye, nothing much. Where is smokiness? Watery, and disappointing beer. It tastes good, but I was expecting more flavors, like chocolate and coffee, but they are not here. I can’t believe it really has 6,5%.
