Bottle. A mostly clear brown beer with a small, dense, beige head. Lightly malty aroma, bread and caramel, some candy notes too, and a light fruityness. It's medium bodied and nicely carbonated, semi-sweet, with a decent bitterness level. Bread, caramel and a touch of roasted malts and fruityness in the flavor. Some candy-ish sweetness too, but it dries up towards the finish. Decent, but works better with food than as a drinking beer. 241201

Svart med inledningsvis stort skum, men det sjunker snart undan till ett litet tunt lock. Doft av rostad malt, lakrits, choklad och kaffe. Smak av ordentligt rostad malt, kaffe och mörk choklad. Kärv men värmande avslutning.
