(Draft at Akkurat, Stockholm, 10 May 2025) Black colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with treacle, dark chocolate, espresso, a touch of smoke, hazelnuts and caramel. Malty, roasted, vinous taste with notes of dark chocolate, espresso, treacle, hazelnuts, coconut and a balanced coffee bitterness in a finish with a slightly boozy touch. Full body, quite sweet. Rich, tasty and powerful. Very nice.

Bottled - dark pour with red brown tinges, fairly heady. Lots of chocolate malts and coffee but not overpoweringly so. Some breadiness and yeast - very complex and good.
