Our most anticipated Vintage Series release is back— XXI is a rich, chocolatey blend with smooth caramel, creamy malt, and a hint of island spice from rum-aged Helldorado. A perfectly balanced, evolving brew that’s best savored slowly.

Flarra Djursvik. Doftar komplext av russin och dadlar. Smakar grymt komplext och gott välbalanserat av russin, choklad, kaffe och bourbon. Superfylig och supergod. Yeeeeees

Black colour with small head. Strong aroma, bourbon, dark malts. Excellent malt base, dark malts, chocolate, just moderately sweet, biscuity; well integrated bourbon, warming booze in the finish.
Wonderful.

Opaque dark brown beer, decent pale tan head. Light bourbon nose, mild wood. Smooth palate, reasonable fine carbonation. Light malts, some sweetness but balanced by nuanced bourbon, mild wood and a trace of brandy. Modest spice and subtle brandy soaked fruits. Light semi dry finish. As always with these beers, layered and sophisticated. The only slight downside is they are a bit samey.
