L- Darker chestnut, pours with a slight hint of haze and 3mm pale tan head that's receding. Later > lacing.
S- It has some toastiness, it reminds me of a trad English bitter.
T- Quite dry on the front, then into deeper dry/toasty flavours that continue to build for a while. Toasty and grainy. Quite a notable dry finish on the tongue.
F- Toasty and dry, I'm half way through when I begin to register some of it's more malty body. [Perhaps try and avoid over-chilling it?].
O- It's different and interesting. I'm enjoying it more as I get through it and the body comes through better. I don't register anything out of place to note. If I were in Estonia I'd happily buy this again, it's a solidly impressive profile to be squeezed from just 4.6%.
BB: 27/11/19. Comes in an idiosyncratic eight vertically sided cone shaped brown bottle, somewhat remiscent of a North Korean skyscraper.
