En betryggende grizzly-størrelse (1 l plastflaske) hjemført i Holmens importkoffert: øl nr. 2 på Holmens siste aktivitetsdag i 2014. Brunsvart med højt varig skum. Aroma og smak av kvalitetskaffe kombinert med mørk sjokolade. Håper den bockølen vi setter i dag blir like velsmakende og lettdrikkelig. Time will show.

From tap at the brewpub 11.12.14. Clear golden. Foamy and persistent white head and lacing. Aroma of fine Czech hops and succade. Similar taste and aftertaste. One of the better pilsners of export strenght.
