Bottle, at Håndverkeren. It pours an unclear brown body under a dense, beige head. Curtains. Roasted malts, coffee, dried fruits, licorice hints, some spiced notes and a touch of brown sugar in the aroma. It’s warming, full-bodied and superbly carbonated, with a suitable level of bitterness. There’s a touch of grass in the flavor, probably caused by the hops, with the same delicious stuff found in the aroma. Roasted malts, dried fruits, some brown sugar, a yeasty spice note and a faint hint of licorice. Some cocoa chiming in toward the lasting finish. A really delicious beer, would love to cellar some bottles for next Christmas. 181115
