A real winter warmer! The rich and spiced flavor with a taste of dark chocolate and dried berries is created by the perfect amount of roasted caramel malt and a well-hidden hop bitterness for a smooth finish. Connoisseur recommendation: Especially enjoyed on a cold winter day with a rich hot pot of meat and vegetables.

330ml bottle from Total Wine. Pours a very dark mahogany color with a light beige head and great retention. Good lacing too. Caramel malt aroma. The taste follows the nose, with sweet caramel malt flavor throughout and a warming finish. The 8.4% ABV is well hidden, but there. Medium-heavy body. Low carbonation. Low bitterness. A good, sneaky strong sipper.
