(Bottle, Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival, 30 Sep 2016) Reddish amber colour with brief, foamy, off-white head. Malty nose with notes of caramel, red fruit and toast. Malty taste with caramel, red fruit, bread, candy sugar and a gentle earthy bitterness. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Well balanced and tasty, but hardly exceptional. Quite enjoyable.

Sample at SBWF 2016. Black with a tan head. On the sweet side with roasted malt, ash, licorice and light notes of plastic. The body was around medium and the finish with warming alcohol. A drinkable one.
