Bottle shared during the RBScSG2015. Pours very hazy burnt golden with a frothy goldenish offwhite head that leaves some thick lacing on the glass while dissipating. Smell is malty and heavy spicy with caramel, dark bread, hay, moist soil, cinnamon, cloves, allspice and lemon zest. Taste is sweet, bitter, malty and spicy. Mouthfeel is soft, round, spicy astringent and medium bodied. Finish is sweet and bitter with dark bread, caramel, christmas spices, moist soil and lemon peal. Way too spicy...

750ml Bottle - Dark brown in colour. Ginger, pomerans, rye bread and cloves in the aroma. Roasted, spicy and chocolatey taste with notes of cocoa, chocolate orange, ginger, cloves, roasted malt and a hint of coffee. By far the best beer I’ve had thus far from this brewery. It reminds me a bit of the 2010 Sigtuna Christmas beer.
