Christmas Day 🎄  More Sahti! Our own, absolutely. This is a date infused version. Looks impenetrable medium-brown. Not sure if there was any carbonation, probably not. A minimal lace ring with big bubbles, color fawn. Soon flat still. The scent is quite restrained. Ehhh... I let it warm and open up for a while. [•••] Okay, I think I can proceed. Yes, better now. Sweet malt, biscuit, dark chocolate, raisin, date, faint banana. That's the fragrance. Interestingly, all the other nuances enter the show before the date. Why? I don't know. I'm glad the date didn't stay hidden though. The taste is medium-ample with sweet-leaning malt, raisin, a pinch of chocolate, cacao nibs and a hint of rye flour. Date is detectable, however, it's only marginally more pronounced than what it was in our regular Christmas Sahti. I expected it to be bigger. The body is medium. The end is identical to upfront, I don't experience any difference. Not the tweak to slightly harsher notes either that showed in the regular sahti – the same soft package prevails all the way down the throat. The mouthfeel is medium, smooth, still marginally husky, even distantly drying but definitely not dry. Lip-glueing. Not much different from the mother version but still a bit. Yet, looks like the date infusion didn't bring more date to the taste but rather gave a punch of additional fermentable sugars that boosted the ABV.
