Pours black with a one finger tan head. The aroma is big on the chocolate along with roast malt and a little bourbon. The flavor is sweet and heavy on the chocolate with roast malt, coffee , and somewhat subdued bourbon. It’s intense and very tasty though I’d have like the bourbon to be a bit stronger.

From the Beer Republic Green advent calendar, Day1, drunk watching Stranger Things 5 after a TGTG pizza from Donatello. Mostly clear amber, caramel nose with citrus and a hint of bubblegum. Rather sweet, tutti-frutti with smooth bitterness. Tasty, maybe a bit sweeter than my usual preference but the big bitterness balances it nicely.

Canned, at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Hazy pale amber, small head. Aroma of grapefruit and starfruit. Mid sweet with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Biscuits, grapefruit and starfruit. Distinct bitter finish. Old school, quality IPA.
