Bottle picked up at Systembolaget Hansa and drunk at home (23/12/2022) - (2020 edition) Proper Xmas vibes now 🎄 sweet and light roasted malty with lots of sumptuous oozing chocolate, interlaced with orange zest, almost orange liqueur like notes going on, full bodied, orange peel, dark sweet malty lingering finish. Lovely, works for me.

Bottle at home, from Systembaloget - the big one in Malmo, 23/11/22. Black with a tan cap that soon dissipates edgewards. Nose is liquid chocolate, orange zest, light vanilla, sugars, mellow roast, hint of coconut, dark malts. Taste comprises orange chocolate, light spice, dark malts, spice, booze, Cointreau, molasses, touch of herb. Full bodied, oily feel, light drying close with a balanced rising boost. Decent pastry affair if no wow factor offered, balances the sweetness well enough, though still a touch overly sweet for my liking.

Aus der Flasche (bbe 01.11.2026) im 2022-09 getrunken. Dieses Stout mit seiner braun-orangen Schaumkrone kommt mit einer kräftigen Schokoladen-Aroma daher. Das Orangen-Aroma wird hinter der Schokolade deutlich, aber sehr gut balanciert. Klar ein Traum von eine Schokoladen-Stout!

Can. Oily bread. A bit too sweet, too heavy, could be more round. Aftertaste is heavy stout stout chocolate. Cant find orange.

Bottle with red wax on the top. Almost no carb. Super sweet soy nose, bonkers. The flavor is a bit on the sweet side, rounded with a bit of citrus, cocoa. It's growing on me after a few sips. Goes very well with an orange olive oil raspberry muffin/cupcake.
