Luke 21 er innholdsrik, nå en 0,5 flaske fra nissen i Hillevåg: brunsvart med fint skum som varer. Mørke, litt sure bær, kaffe, bitter sjokolade type 80%, urter og ristet rugbrød. Litt bitrere (og surere, naturligvis) enn jeg vanligvis opplever med bokkøl (en av mine absolutte favorittstiler), men den får allikevel fart på mine indre juleklokker mens vinterstormen raser rundt nova.

Sour? Hmmm I did not find it especially sour Black pour and a small beige head. Ok intensity in the aroma. Fine sweetness this one and a mellow carbonation level Toffee, fruity, roast and some spices in the flavor. [Bottle at Komlefjorden 23]

Bottle 500ml @ home. Pours black with a small tan head. Aroma has notes of hard roasted malt, ash, licorice and something burnt and light smoked. Taste is medium sweet and light bitter with a slightly dry, harsh burnt malt, burnt caramel and licorice finish. Body is full, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. I didn't find the sour part, but that burnt malt and burnt caramel I'm not a huge fan of.

10/XI/23 - on tap @ Billies Craft Beer Festival (Antwerp), Day 1 - part 1, BB: n/a (2023-918) Thanks to NathanVC for sharing today’s beers!

Clear blond beer, small creamy beige head, pretty stable, non adhesive. Aroma: good roast, pretty oxidized, spicy, dried fruits, soy sauce, more roast. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: malty start, very roasted, pretty bitter, spicy, weird, nutmeg, cloves, more oxidation, soy sauce. Aftertaste: very bitter roast, a bit off, dry, very spicy, weird, don’t like it very much.

It’s okay. A bit too weird a mix of flavours. Decent overall. __ Billies Craft Beer Festival 2023__
