500 ml bottle, 2015, mainly green label, ABV is 6.5%. Hazy and very dark brown colour, moderate off-white head. Aroma of Christmas spices and brown malts. Medium dry flavour, with roast malts and distinct Christmas spices, maybe not very well balanced, but not bad either. A slight warming burn of spices, alcohol and hops in the finish. Might well drink this one again.

500 ml bottle (label with blue winter motive), one of just a few remaining at Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 4.7%. Brown colour, huge off-white head. Aroma of medium roast malts, burnt breadcrumbs, caramel and pine logs. Dry flavour with mediium roast malts, but just enough fruitiness to make the beer quite drinkable. Hints of caramel and brown bread. Moderate hops.

500 ml bottle. Unclear amber body with a small tan head. Nice malt dominated aroma with mild caramel, dry fruit and spicy Belgium yeast. Surprisingly fresh in flavor, medium sweet malt, fruity, moderate spicy and decent bitterness. Fin balanced body, particular considering the 4,5% ABV with a decent aftertaste. As a Christmas beer alternative for the Norwegian grocery marked I think this is one of the best in the marked right now, not too spicy, could easily match most kind of food and I like the Belgium touch as a good alternative for the most common caramel malt versions.
