No fancy pancy stuff. Plain easy mild brown. But it felt a bit to thin and the carbonation level was way to high. Clear nutty pour with a fine head. Ok lacing Moderate intensity in the aroma Balanced sweetness and a to high carbonation level Also a bit thin body Mostly dark malt, bready and some roast in the flavor [Bottle from Mjorud Christmas Calendar 2020]

Brygging på årets nest siste dag er unnagjort og gjæringsbøtta er båret ned, så da er det bare å hente frem litt snadder fra boden. Valget falt på denne 0,5 flasken innkjøpt på Landhandleri. Mørk, mørk brun (nesten brunsvart) med fint skum som varer. Mørke malter, ristet brød, knekk/brente mandler og en mild urtebitterhed. Hint av lakris og julekrydder. En lettdrikkelig og god juleøl som også falt i smak hos Kitty.
