Bottled. Nut brown colour with a small off-white head. Aroma is rye bread, green apple skins, some pears, liquorice and mild spiciness. Flavour is liquorice, some black pepper, bread and mild green apple skins along with some floral tones. Somewhat dry palate. Not sure what the brewers tried to accomplish here, but even though more strange than messy, this is drinkable.

(Draught at Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival, 29 Sep 2022) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, slightly roasted nose with caramel, red fruit and toffee. Malty, slightly roasted taste with notes of caramel, apricots, dried fuit and a mild spicy bitterness. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Tasty and well balanced. Quite nice.

Flaska från SB. Smak och doft av humle, malt, karamell, bröd, ljus torkad frukt med toner av örter och övermogna päron. Stor sötma, fruktig, pepprig, en aning kraftig kolsyra (eller bismak), fin beska.
