(Bottle 50 cl) Hazy, dark amber with a rough, off-white head. Fruity and somewhat floral aroma also with quite some acidity - but definitely not in an infected manner. Medium body with lightly sweet caramel accents and some flower imprints before a surprisingly bitter finish. There’s actually some leathery astringency - almost Orvallish. Quite a different take on a Christmas beer - less christmasy perhaps, but quite interesting. 221207

Bottled. A hazy dark golden beer with a huge fluffy white head. The aroma is very hoppy with notes of spices and herbs as well as some underlying malt. The flavor is sweet malty with a strong note of dusty hops as well as some caramel, leading to a slightly bitter finish with some notes of citrus hitting late. Nothing special.

50 cL bottle. Pours dark brown with a huge light brown head. Roasted and spiced to herbal aroma, strange. Flavour has a decent chocolate and mild vanilla smoothness. Has a slight coffee and roasted malt bitterness in addition. Finish holds a blend between roasted malt and hops bitterness.
