Luciferin is our monument to those bright and ephemeral flashes that light the deep. The aroma blends chocolate with tart lime; it's heavy, and oozes up the glass. On the tongue is an immediate assault of juiced lime which coalesces around the tart and salty gose broth. Our darkened base lends a whisper more of chocolate, before the experience sinks back to the depths.

Clear dark brown beer, very thin pale tan head. Light and slightly thin minerally crisp palate. A little dark chocolate in the thin but dark malts. Good vibrant salty lime. Light finish. Like Chocolate Lime sweets but made very tart and savoury. Startling and hugely entertaining and drinkable.

From a 330ml bottle on 17/5/2020. Pours a deep red amber with a small head. Has a stongish tart raspberry nose with virtually no head. The flavour follows suit - big tart raspberry witha quite sour finish. The mouthfeel is slick and the carbonation moderate. Not bad, and quite refreshing but could use a touch more sweetness.

330ml bottle. Pours very dark brown with almost no head. Aroma of lime, blackcurrant, cola, subtle chocolate. Taste is salty, tart lime, cola sweets, blackcurrant, subtle chocolate, mild spice. Medium body, soft carbonation. This is weird, but it works.

Fra fat på Agenturet. En nesten-svart gose! Ultradyprød. Så vidt litt skum som raskt blir borte. Cola-aktig. Forsiktig fruktaroma. Smaken dorens & cola. Tørr sukkertøyaktig ettersmak

Taste is slightly dry sour-ish fruity, soda powder, lime, fruit salt, sorrel, fruit stones, sour black currants, grass, hay, minerals, bark. Medium bitterness, dry sour-ish fruity mouthfeel. A weird one, but also nice and interesting.
