50cl bottle at O’Learys, Rygge. Pours very dark brown, almost black, with a decent beige head. Rather hoppy aroma with some pine and citrus, not so fruity this time. Moderate to medium sweet with hops dominating the flavour, not so much of the malty and roasty ones. Finishes medium bitter. A bit lively carbonation and medium body. Fair enough.
