440ml can bought at Indiebeeer in Holloway London. Carried back home and shared with Finn. Next-to-clear dark brownish body, fair beige head leaving lacing rings down the glass. Inviting aromas of caramel malts, mid-dry. Well blended taste of caramel malts and dried fruits, oaky. Malt-driven end with a integrted bourbon bite. Fine depth to it. Nice. (Tromsø, 15.12.2023).
