"Part of a journey. A journey towards the perfect stout, towards utopia. Step by step, beer by beer, on and on. Forever!" That's how we spoke about the base beer, the non-barrel-aged version, Saffron. "A great piece of art colored with saffron. Inspired by every Swede's favorite holiday baked good: the Saint Lucia bun! For all your fireplace pastry needs. Lussebulle!"
Saffron was the continuation of something wholly new and simultaneously built on a set foundation. Its journey started in the US, where we brewed two other stouts. We thought we were done there, but upon tasting them and thinking about them, we realized we had something remarkable on our hands, something we could play around with. So, the Grand series was born.
Grand is a series of stouts, a canvas, that we paint as we go along. And if we for the base beer drew with spice, we've for this beer drawn with spirit, with the signature added being the magic that happens when you barrel-age in freshly emptied bourbon barrels.
Grab a cup, fill it up and dunk away. Sip!

WoW. Solid evening sipper. Not to much bourbon and not to much saffran Complete black pour and a fine head Nice intensity in the aroma Balanced sweetness and a fine mellow carbonation level Dangerously easy to drink Dark malt, chocolate, vanilla, mild bourbon, some spices and toffee in the flavor [Bottle at Carlstad Ölhall in Karlstad, Sweden]
