Bottle. An unclear, dark brown beer topped by a dense, beige head of moderate size. The aroma is malty, boozy and quite hoppy. Pine cones, caramel, some oxidation, and a little meaty hint. Grapefruit too. It’s warming and full-bodied on the palate, with a pleasant carbonation level. Citrus peel, caramel, pine cones, alcohol and roasted notes. Lasting bitter finish with too much warmth. A messy one. 140420

Saftig og god smak, de har rett de herrerne på Stronzo - her er mye malt og mye humle, og sannelig også velbalansert!. Valget i baren vil være lett, men med denne tyngden vil nok en være nok.
