From bottle shared at Oud Beersel. tastes funky, earthy, bit lactic, glue. Ok, lacks complexity, on the sour side.

Bottle. A quite malty one, lightly roasted and chocolatey, with toffee and some dark dried fruit. A pleasant beer that takes more than a sip to shine. 647514 251025

500ml bottle from Vinmonopolet Langnes. Batch #2995. Spotty lacing from a pearl white head, hazy dark orange coloured body. Moderate smell of toffee. Rather strange kind of taste, hints of caramel malts, some spices to it, mid-sweet. Mid-sweet and mid-dry malty finish. Okay with our cheese board, but actually disappointing. (Tromsø, 13.10.2025)

Sampled from bottle @ Dark Night 2025. Clear, deep brown body with almost no carbonation. Aroma is quite intense with dark, roasted malt and mild, boozy alcohol. Taste is sweet, dark, medium roasted malt, dry fruits, hint of wood and alcohol. The alcohol sting is lower than expected from a beer at 28% ABV. I was told by Tore that this is made from a base of different Dark Horizon editions together with some other strong beers from Nøgne which results in a fortified mix from a good blend of these beers. Difficult to assess in a beer context, but a fun and pleasant experience in smaller quantities, much similar like the way to drinking Cognac etc.
