Bottle at home. Aroma is rye, malt, caramel, toffee, dark bread, raisins, a bit nutty, with a touch of hops. Flavour is pretty sweet and moderate bitter. Body is medium. Rich and rewarding ’dark rye ale’.

330ml Bottle - Hazy copper red with a foamy head. Raisins, cherries and dates in the aroma. Fruity, spicy and moderately sweet taste with notes of toffee, rye, cherries, sultanas and dates. Quite nice at first but becomes a bit cloying after a while so loses a little bit for that.

0,33 flaske fra Bulgarsk Mad i Rantzausgade, på hytta: mørkebrun mahogny med fint offwhite skum som varer. Dufter og smaker av mørke karameller, cigarkasse, støv, visne bjørnebær, rugbrød og urter. Høres kanskje ikke så godt ut, men det smaker fsktisk riktig godt. Halvtørr bitterhet i den lange ettersmaken, som også beholder innteykket av mørk karamellsjokolade, rugbrød og overmodne, mørke bær. Kan godt gjentas.
