This full, complex beer is an homage to one of Mike’s best known beers. At 7% ABV it’s an extremely smooth beer without cloying sweetness, but with all the roasted/chocolate/coffee flavours you’re looking for in your dark beers. Take a Dark Orbit in our space ship to Planet Delicious.

330ml can bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Big, creamy, tan-coloured head with good retention leaving crocheted lacing on the glass. Black in body appearance. Very nice, indeed. Appealing smell of dark bread and nuts, moderately roasted. Rather powerful taste character of almond, cocoa, and liquorice added by pine needles towards the ending. Well bodied and smooth on the swallow. Pleasant. (Tromsø 02.02.2019).
