Endelig tilbake på Cardinal etter 6 ukers coronakarantene: 0,33 flaske (bb. april-16) generøst spanert av og delt med skibsrederen. Nesten helt svart med kort skum. Svisker, engelsk lakris, tjære, kreosot, lær og noe syrlig som jeg ikke er helt sikker på at hører hjemme her.

(Bottle) Dark brown colour, almost black, with brief bubbly beige head. Malty, slightly smoky nose with black rye bread, liquorice, oak wood, coffee, dried fruit (raisins, dates), vanilla and a touch of peaty whisky. Malty, slightly smoky taste with notes of black rye bread, oak wood, prunes, raisins, coffee, liquorice, vanilla, molasses, peaty whisky and a balanced herbal bitterness in a warming finish. Almost full body, quite sweet. Really tasty and well balanced. Excellent beer!

Best before April 2016, had it in Oct 2013
Dark brown to black color. Some hoppy aroma, with chocolate in the background. Sweetish caramel flavor, some malt, evident whiskey and vanilla flavor, with good chocolate presence; moderate sweetness.

Bottle from systembolaget, cellared for a couple of years. Pitch black with almost no head. Oily texture. Boozy, peated aroma with molasses and oak. Peat is a little bit overpowering. Taste is similar with roast, earth, molasses, soy sauce and salt. No smokiness at all in the taste which is a big plus for me. Slightly bitter chocolate finish.
