Not bad. Ample toasted malts, nutty notes, toffee, grain, booze, dried semi-dark fruits. Mild warmth. A little depth but fairly straightforward.

200ml draught at Balthazar. Shared with Finn. Clear dark copper coloured body, dotted spots on the glassware, film-type layer. Inviting on the nose with caramel malts and dried fruits. Well blended malt-forward taste of bread and caramel complemented by raisin. Nicely roasted caramel malty ending. Mid-sweet. Well bodied. Good drinking. (Tromsø, 10.04.2026).
