(Bottle sample, Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival, 25 Oct 2025) Dark brown colour, almost black, with no head. Malty, roasted, vinous nose with notes of chocolate, oak wood, dried fruit, raisins, prunes, liquorice, dark cherries and a touch of port wine. Malty, roasted, vinous taste with dark chocolate, dried fruit, raisins, oak wood, soy sauce, liquorice and a warming, vinous finish with a balanced roasty bitterness and a slight alcohol bite. Medium body, sweet. Rich, powerful and far from shy. Balanced? Well, hardly. But really tasty and built for slow sipping by the fire. Great beer!
