Fig, barrel aged, chocolate and caramel

Damn this is smooth.... aroma is heady and the flavor leans into stout territory with fudge and cupcakes but the body is all barley wine and the finish has intense figs and dried fruit.

Mørk brun uklar med beige skum. Lukter sjokolade, rosiner, bourbon, fat og noe vanilje. Fyldig. Søtlig. Smaker toffee, bourbon, rosiner noe kaffe og vanilje. Lang alkoholvarm avslutning.

Flaska från SB drucken med ölföreningen. Klar gyllengul vätska utan skum. Fantastisk doft med lager på lager av söt malt, torkad frukt, fudge, bourbon, mörk karamell, vanilj. Potent, välbalanserad, elegant och lyxig. En perfekt bw försiktigt lagrad på bourbonfat. Mycket gott

20ml tap, kindly shared by TheCellarer @Crowbar, Oslo. Dark brown (?) body, with tiny ring that sticks inside the glass. Roasted coffee, dark chocolate, oaky notes as well as figs, dried orange, vanilla seeds that gives it an edge and some bitterness. Very well balanced and smooth bodied. Lingers and is not overly sweet. Love this one!

.2 from tap, shared with Snegurochka. Deep reddish brown semi-transparent body with no head to speak of. Served a bit cold so aroma is not that impressive to begin with, but it does grow on you once it heats up. The wonder of this extremely well-balanced brew really hits you when you taste it, perhaps best compared to biting down on a high-end chocolate confectionery. There is the obvious taste of chocolate, bitter notes of coffee and well integrated and heartwarming notes of alcohol. All this is quite normal for this type of beer if well made, but what puts it over the top is the citrusy - think dried orange - flavour and notes of clove that combines SO well with the above-mentioned tastes. While a smorgasbord of confectionery pleasure, the brew thankfully avoids the over-sweet or artificial impressions that sometimes accompany such flavours. When the aftertaste with strong notes of vanilla lingers as long as it does in a perfectly pleasurable way, there is not much to complain about. A more or less perfect dessert in itself, Lervig upholds their lofty standards with this wonderful sipping experience.
