Dark amber color, with small head. The aroma of malt and caramel is very deep and persistent, the malts have some roasted character, and it also has that dusty trait that is common in Scandinavia; nice hops too. Despite the low ABV, the body is strong enough and the mouthfeel quite round; strong caramel flavor, and strong bitterness as expected from Sigtuna; the roastiness of the malts gently increases towards the end, that is a bit ashy.
Not the expected Harvest Ale, but very good.
