Can at Håndverkeren. Probably 2022 vintage. A hazy brown beer with a small beige head. The aroma has a light oxidation that feels nice, along with toffee, some dark chocolate and roasted malts, a good dash of alcohol and some raisin. Typical lager touch too. It's full bodied and a bit warming, probably best to share this one, with a fine carbonation. Sweet, not cloying, due to the alcohol level and a good bitterness. Sweet flavor with lots of toffee and dark dried fruit. Caramel, raisin, some prune and dark chocolate. Piney hops, lager yeast and a pleasant oxidation. Alcohol. Lasting finish. As already mentioned, probably best shared, but it's really nice anyway. And as the brewery is closed, this is most likely my last, and best I think, beer from Beer Flag. 241121

Bit of boozyness here, high ABV for a doppelbock. There's nice maltyness, little bit of toast and fairly caramelly. Nicely bittersweet, well balanced. A tasty and fun beer.
