330ml bottle. Poured almost black in colour with a short-lived, frothy, dark tan head. The aroma is roasty malt, orange and light alcohol. The flavour is moderate sweet and liquorice bitter, with a smooth, rich, roasty, chocolate orange, boozy alcohol bitter palate and an oily mouthfeel. Full bodied with soft carbonation.

Dark chocolate, orange, rich. Pours very dark and silky. For some reason feels nowhere near the 10.1%, and isn’t overly sweet. Good stuff.

Tasting @Henry & Sally's (Oslo). Nera, densa, impenetrabile, schiuma ecrù medio-leggera. Al naso note di cioccolato, arancia candita, frutta secca, liquore, marzapane. In bocca è dolce, cioccolatosa, leggermente speziata, un po' stucchevole. Corpo pieno, carbonazione soft. Non un granché.

9.5% alkohol Beer hos Patrik med PQ. Här har vi choklad, 🍫 Apelsin 🍊 tydlig Apelsin samt vanilj och lite marsipanlikör samt rödtjut. 🎄 Julöl . Bra balanserad. Visst söt är den men fasen en av de bästa Julölen därute.
