Another from the Tallinn-based brewery, this one I had the time I was there. This is another of their core range, this one being a milk stout with the name meaning Black Gold. It's made of a huge mix of different malts along with two hops, Magnum and Goldings I served this chilled.

Appearance: Thick black, completly inpenatrable. The head is a latte colour, initially medium size but fades down to a trace.
Aroma: Fresh blackberries with underlying notes of coffee.
Flavour: Wholemeal toast on the front moving into a sweet end. There is also a pleasant underlying mocha note.
Body: Slightly thick with some creamy notes, still quite fresh.
Aftertaste: The sweetness continues then developes into a slight bitter from the hops, or into a blackcurrant note, this changes with each sip.
Overall: Therefore this gets a rating of 7, a sweet but not overly sweet for a milk stout with refreshing berry notes and roasted malt flavours.
Price Range: Another of the 8 beers for £14 - so £1.75 for a 330ml bottle, a great price for a nice beer.
Food Pairings: A nice sharp cheese and oatmeal crackers.
