Canned (from Alko Web). Deep brown colour, small off-white head. Aroma is fruity, some toasted tones with mild dried fruits, some nutty elements too. Flavour is alcohol, dried fruits and rather stinging sweet, with a big warming feel to it. Mellows out in the aftertaste. Quite nice, even though the boozy kick in the middle is a bit too heavy.

Can at home, 26th May 2021. Pours a black beer, big off white slight tan head, that lingers. Aroma is citrus, pine, cocoa, expresso martini. Taste is smooth, sticky, sweet and bitter, cocoa and marmalade, multi layers of complexity, dark chocolate and a grapefruit rolled in pine resin and cocoa climax, excellent stuff, lacks the body and intensity of the Cloudwater versions but is great in its own right

Sample, thanks oh6gdx! Black, mid sized creamy head. Aroma of bubblegum and caramel. Very sweet with full body and viscous mouthfeel. Syrup, bubblegum, caramel and strawberry jam. Finishes with vodka heat and aching sweetness. A mess.

44 cl can @ home. BBE 08.06.2021. Aroma has resin, some fruity hops and rye. Flavour is somewhat sweet and sticky with rye, grapefruity hops, some fruits and licorice. Good, but drinkability is not that great.

440ml can from Alko. Poured dark brown in color. Lots of licorice candy in aroma. Roastedness, hops in flavor, some bitterness and later quite alot of sweetness. Not very balanced. Enjoyed the aroma though and quite easy to drink despite the ABV.

440ml can. Sweet, ripe tropical fruity and slightly roasty with hints of pine, grass, chocolate, licorice, caramel, toffee and syrup. A bit unbalanced, quite heavy and sweet juicy and not very bitter or roasty.

(Can, 0.44 l - BB 08.07.2021, from Alko, 20210401) The beer poured clear and nearly black. Its head was medium sized and lightly brown. Aroma had pine, liquorice, burnt malts and fruitiness. Palate was medium bodied and lightly warming with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, fruitiness, liquorice, pine and bitterness. Aftertaste had fruitiness, burnt malts and bitterness. A pleasant brew combining the burnt notes with fruitiness.
