200ml draught at Tromsø Mikrobryggeri. Low, fawn-coloured body, clingy lacing, black in the glass. Inviting aromas of earthy malts, nicely roasted. Well blended taste profile of nutty chocolate, oatmeal, and liquorice, hints of dark berries as well. Roasted malty tail with a backdrop of coffee. Fine depth. Interesting and unusual brew. (Tromsø, 15.05.2023).

Keg at Awakening 23. Aroma is big a (coffee berry) fruity (so not actually fruity). Underlying coffee itself. Opaque darkest brown. No head (story of my life). Initial impressions of the flava are sugary coffee and tangy coffee berries. That sugariness remains throughout. Followed by coffee bitterness and booze. Coats the mouth. Thick. Oily. Sticky. Flat-average carbonation. Long somewhat astringent finish. Surprisingly sweet but enjoyable. After dinner coffee Impy. Off for a blood test.

Keg at Awakening 23. Stone fruit, resin and booze combine for the aroma. Hazy pale yellow-gold. Thin creamy white head sticks to the rim. Smooth stuff flava-wise: Stone fruit with canned fruit syrup and oat creaminess. Resin is more obvious into the finish, as is a boozy streak. Medium bodied. Creamy if pithy. Sticky. Flat carbonation. Long finish with a dryness and some astringency. A fitting beer for one of Fallen Acorn's final brews and the festival they co-organised.

Keg at Awakening 23. Aroma is fruity with a tannin edge. Hazy orange. Foamy white head. Heavy sourness. Verging but not quite at mouth puckering. What was in this? Vinous with a tannin edge. Fruit and berries. Light. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Dry sour stuff.
