Bottled, from Systembolaget. Dark brown, enormous lively head. Pretty much impossible to pour. Aroma of cardamom and caramel. Mid sweet with medium body and rounded, spritzy mouthfeel. Caramel, licorice and cardamom. Mid bitter finish. Pretty good beer, but the bottle conditioning is out of control.

On tap at Brewdog Malm�, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is extremely prominent on the cardamom, with subdued earthy coffee - that cardamom isn't sitting right on the nose. Flavour is a bit better, with the cardamom upfront, melding decently with restrained earthy coffee, and toasted malt base. Not really a fan of the cardamom, but it's a decently-made holiday beer.
