'Bestefar' is the Norwegian word for Grandfather. In this case, it refers to the father of Father Christmas, or 'Nissefar' as he is known in Norway. Bestefar is the perfect companion for a cold winter night spent contemplatively in front of a fire or for those fire-side moments that are a bit more 'festive'. It is complex, a little bit wild...and it might just be the best by far!

Birch and Barley, tap: pours near black with a brownish head. Aroma is smoke, meat, maltiness, molasses. Taste is smoky, sweet, kind of bitter. Body is thick and chewy. Alcohol is well covered but you know you are drinking something very large.

Gode, men kunne trengt litt mer lagring, noe flat men ellers med godt potensiale for å bli farlig drikkendes
