Medium tan head. Amber body with carbonation and little particles. Light earthy perfumy eldeberry aroma with spicy notes. Dry-sweetish mealy elderberry taste with spicy notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, mealy mouthfeel. Dryish minty elderberry aftertaste with spicy gooseberry notes. It’s OK, but lacking in complexity. (0.5l bottle, wine monopoly, web order.)

Biggish beige head. Hazy deep dark red body with light carbonation. Roasty smoky licorice aroma with minty notes. Dry-sweet smoky earthy toffee taste with candy notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft, smooth mouthfeel. Dryish earthy smoky chocolatey aftertaste with licorice notes. It’s OK, but a little dense, sweet, and cloying. (0.75l bottle, wine monopoly, web order.)

Medium dark brown head. Opaque black body. Roasty earthy licorice aroma with chocolatey notes. Dry roasty burnt ashy taste with spicy fruity notes. Fullish body. Mild, dusty mouthfeel. Dryish burnt ashy aftertaste with licorice and fruit notes. Very, very dark beer, but sort of elegant even so. (0.5l bottle, wine monopoly, Strømmen Storsenter.)

Big beige head. Clear deep amber body. Spicy perfumy lavender aroma with cardamom notes. Sweet-dryish oily roasty spicy taste with lavender and cardamom notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft mouthfeel. Dryish cardamom and cinnamon aftertaste with roasty oily notes. Nice, drinkable, but perhaps a bit heavy on the spice. (0.5l bottle, wine monopoly, Strømmen Storsenter.)

Medium tan head. Hazy reddish brown body. Roasty earthy candy aroma with sugary caramelly notes. Dry-sweet roasty caramelly licorice taste with toffee and spice notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft mouthfeel. Dryish spicy licorice candy aftertaste with caramelly earthy burnt notes. A bit perfumy, too, but in a nice way. Really nice. Very elegant, balanced, and harmonic. Crazily drinkable, but with lots of flavour. (0.5l bottle, wine monopoly, Strømmen Storsenter.)

50cl bottle from Vinmonopolet, Storo. Pours clear amber with an off-white head. Aroma of caramel, malt, alcohol and hints of spices, hops and dark fruits. Sweet and caramelly with a lightly bitter and spicy finish. Too sweet and caramelly for my taste.
