Bottled, from Systembolaget. Clear copper colour, small head. Aroma of bourbon and caramel. Sweet with full body and soft mouthfeel. Caramel, mild vanilla and bourbon. Velvetty and mellow. Warming finish. Can’t help myself loving it.

Pours a dark mahogany color, clean, with medium sized head. Aroma of malt and oak barrel, cane sugar, hint of oxidisation. Full bodied; rather sweet caramel flavor with sweet nuts traces; unfortunately the alcohol is too present, and it seems to be the sole counterpart of the sweetness, rather than some more solid bitterness. Some vegetable soup in the end.
Easily cloying.

Bottle. Clear deep copper liquid with small off-white head. Aroma of raw sugar, dried fruit, caramel, oak, coconut, toffee, bread and biscuit. Taste is light sweet and light bitter with notes of dried fruit, toffee and oak. Medium bodied with low carbonation. Quite nice.
