A dark brown colour with a small thin beige head. Aroma is lightly roasted malt, chocolaty with some fruit and roasted nuts. Moderately sweet, chocolaty, nutty and roasted bitter flavours. Smooth with a lingering bitterness in the finish.

(Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm, 11 Dec 2015) Black colour with foamy, beige head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of chocolate, dried fruit and caramel. Malty, slightly roasted taste with chocolate, coffee, caramel and a fairly sweet finish with a balanced roasty bitterness. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty and well balanced. Nice one.
