olden Promise and Vienna malt provide a background for Simpson’s Premium English Caramalt, DRC, Pale Chocolate, plenty of torrified and malted wheat, and a touch of roasted barley. Hopped with classic English varieties Fuggles and East Kent Goldings in the kettle and whirlpool for a balancing bitterness.
Dark black yet bright, rich and round in taste, a smooth mouthfeel with a dry ashy finish. Subtle bitterness with roasty notes, nutty and chocolatey aromas, hints of coffee and burnt sugar.

330ml can bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Rings of lace down the glassware from a slowly diminishing, bubbly, tan head, deep dark brown body, almost black in the glass. Inviting aromas of nicely roasted dark chocolate malts. Fine blended malt-driven taste of dark chocolate, liquorice, and brittle caramel backed by a little bite of dried fruits. Roasted, almost burnt, malty ending. Medium bodied. Well crafted, Yuletide feel. (Tromsø, 23.12.2024).

Can. A black one, with a dense dark beige head. Nice lacing. The aroma is roasted and lightly burnt, with dark chocolate and a touch of something reminiscent of oats and raisin. It's rather thin on the palate, semi dry and softly carbonated, with a gentle bitterness. Roasted malts, dark chocolate and a touch of burnt malts and raisin in the flavor. Lasting bitter, roasted flavor. A bit too gentle this one but sure fine. 241126
