2019 bottle shared with Jorge and RJ at RJ's, pulling out the big guns for friends and all that. Big on espresso, cacao, roasted malts and dried fruits, fairly low on BA character although some tannins do show. Good bodied with soft carbo, the age shows but not turning for the worse yet.

2020 bottle shared with Jorge and RJ at RJ's, alongside with a 2019 Kaggen bottle.Courtesy of Nisse666, thanks a lot! Definitely feels fresher than the '19 bottle, even though it's still got a fair level of aged character. Surprisingly hoppy and dry, but got a good body nevertheless. Heavily chocolatey, with roast and dried fruits coming through as well. Nois.

thanks omhper! Amber colour, small off-white head. Aroma is nectar, some dried fruits, smoked and toasted tones with mild peat and some alcohol too. Flavour is peat smoked, some alcohol sweetness with dried fruits, fudge and some vanilla too. Quite evident alcohol, but a very nice sipper anyways!

250 ml bottle. 12%. Pours black with short foamy tan head. Aromas of licorice, molasses, dark chocolate, and slick roasted malts. Flavors of chocolate nougat, vanilla, molasses and oily roasted malts. Served in a 250 ml bottle which is a great choice for the ABV. Near perfection.

Bottle from Systembolaget Sweden.
Big and long lasting fluffy brown head.
Very dark red black color.
Distinct chocolate aroma and taste with a bit roasted maltiness.
Nice body to balance the medium bitterness.

Bottle, courtesy of Bryne. Black with a light beige head. Roasted, burnt malts in the aroma, with alcohol and some dark dried fruit. Full body, semi-dry, quite bitter. Warming. Some piney hops in the flavor, else like the aroma. Lightly metallic finish. A bit too burnt and edgy, still nice though. 250220
