200ml draught at Tromsø Mikrobryggeri. Coal black in the glass, bubbly ring to the rim of the surface, scattered lacing. Attractive on the nose with vanilla sweet chocolate added by a spicy scent. Comprehensive, well balanced taste of chocolate, cocoa powder, and dark berry-fruits. Lingering ending of chocolate malts and dark berries. Full bodied and smooth on the swallow. Good drinking. (Tromsø, 13.08.2023).
