Aroma of hard liquor, loads of black coffee, vanilla, stone fruits; taste of rather sweet stone fruits, brown sugar, white sugar, coffee, vanilla, quite a lot of roasted malts.

UPDATED: OCT 2, 2021 Flaske: Sortbrun øl med et lille skumhoved. Duft af soja og sød mat. Som øllen varmer op kommer der en del lakrids. Men stadig noget soja. Masser af humlebiterhed redder øllen fra at lide sødme døden. Alt i alt. meh.

UPDATED: SEP 30, 2021 Czarne z brązowymi refleksami i niedużą, nietrwałą pianą. W zapachu czuć te rodzynki, rum i wanilię + kawo-czeko. W smaku podobnie, słodkie, wyraźnie też palone, ze średnią, tytoniową goryczką i posmakiem coli. Oleiste, niskie co2, choć nieco zbyt mocno rozgrzewa na finiszu.
