This beer is a punch praline and not a punsch praline. While the latter is a Swedish chocolate treat tasting of the beverage Punsch, the former is an imperial chocolate stout aged on rum barrels and is packing a real punch. Confused? KO!
Ok, let’s unwrap the confusion that might be because of the label text above: Why is the beer called Punch Praline? The beer is called Punch Praline because it tastes like a chocolate praline with a real punch. So, why include punsch praline in the text? Well, we did that because the praline the beer tastes like is called punsch praline and it’s a Swedish classic. So, why not call it that? Because punsch praline is flavored to taste like the traditional spirit Punsch. Huh? And, that spirit or anything tasting like that spirit has not been used in the production of this beer… Ok…? Yeah.

(Bottle) Brownish black colour with brief head. Malty, roasted nose with dark chocolate, oak wood, rum, raisins, black coffee, vanilla and sweet liquorice. Malty, roasted taste with notes of dark chocolate, oak wood, rum, raisins, coffee, vanilla, liquorice and a mild cacao bitterness in a sweet and warming finish. Full body, sweet. Thick and oily mouthfeel. Rich, warming and tasty, with lots of chocolate, sweet coffee, rum and liquorice. Very nice.

Flarra hos vän med fina ostar till. Ölen doftar rejält sött av punchoralin. När jag tar stora klunken känns choklad sen tydligt fin rom och visst känns punchoralinen . Men relativt torr faktiskt . Extrema sötman i doften finns inte i smaken . Supergod imp stout med fina rom inslag . 👍🤗🙏. Dugges jag saknar Imperial stout Speyside . Kan ni inte göra en liknande igen tack 🙏. Den var en av världens godaste öl

Svart med litet skum. Tydlig smak av rom och arrak. Torr choklad i bakgrunden. Känns till en början lite väl kantig, men när den sakta värms upp gifter sig smakerna mer och mer och i slutändan blir det riktigt bra. Värmer gôtt.
