What about the beer?
Colour is black with thin natural white head. Aroma has sweet roasted sugar, candy and mango. Taste starts with biting bitterness and roast. Roasted bitter grapefruit takes over with mild malty notes. The taste turns burned and dry towards the end. Aftertaste has charred heavy dryness with lasting grapefruit bitterness.
Delicious marriage of roasted-charred dryness and fruity bitterness. Great piece from this unholy style of dark beers - India Black Ale worth every sip. Excellent work, Tuusula dudes!

Something in the bottle label made me select electronic music to be partnered with this one. Neither bitter fruits nor dry roast are held back in this one, so a track that repeats "Don't hold back" suits the beer well.
