Bottle. An almost see-through amber to brown beer with a small beige head. Some lacing. Quite meaty aroma, bready and toffee-ish, with dried fruits and a piney touch. It's full-bodied and smooth on the palate, softly carbonated, with a malt-driven flavor. Chocolate, toffee, bread, dried fruits and a decent bitterness. Some sweetness, but just as much as needed. Malty finish too. Quite decent this one, although not a favorite. 221214

Amber, hazy with a minimal head. Sweet malt and caramel aroma with some spice sense. Sweet with a malt and yeast end. Low carbonation. The ending reminds me of my mom who made something she called tomtegløgg. So it feels a bit homemade and flat, but then again Christmas feeling for me! BB 09.2022, vinmonopolet.no 12.2020

Lukter noe vørter, karamell og rosiner. Gylden brun lett tåkete med beige skum. Middels fylde. Søt, maltig smak. Maltekstrakt, kandissukker, alkohol og noe kakao. Middels lang.
Bra øl, i klassisk norsk juleøl-stil. Det er ikke av de mest spennende, men et solid nedslag i en stil det er er mye rart ute å går.
