Bottled:
Pours a dark brown colour with a rich head. Roasted, somewhat smoked aroma with notes of chocolate. Somewhat thin mouth feel. Flavour starts of quite roasted with notes of coffee but soon gets really hoppy with notes of shampoo. A bit unbalanced.

Bottle. This stout is hard to put on the map. Its kind of a mix between an american porter and a english stout. Elegantly creamy and well balanced, still kind of hoppy with some coffe beans bitterness aswell. Slightly smoked. KInd of thin for its 6,8ABV, but that also adds to its drinability.

500ml bottle from Systembolaget

Pours black with a nice foamy head. Aroma has hints of chocolate and coffee. Taste is pretty roasted but the body is kinda light and the finish is pretty bland. Alcohol burns through a bit too much.

Bottle, 12C. Very dark brown with a dense crema head. Aroma has mild roast, nuts, coffee, nectarines, lychees and a little gooseberry. Certainly quite noticeably hoppy aromatics for a stout. Medium body has some stickiness. Taste has more roasted malt character than suggested by the aroma. Not much fruit taste, but quite a lot of coffee and cocoa. Dry, almost powdery finish is more roasted than hop bitterness. Lacks a little depth but pretty good.
