Based on previous Baltika experience, I can’t imagine it will matter much. Very dark brown with a big, foamy, light brown head. Big, sweet malt nose, molasses and a wisp of smoke. Rather dry, flavors are charcoal and raisin with a pop of anise, burnt malt is evident. Body is the thin side of medium. Decent lace. Far better than expected. Joeh (1908), Buckinghamshire, England
