Description
There are yet places in the world where man is not superior; like rock-hard white deserts abandoned by the sun, where harsh winds and freezing temperatures minimize your chances of survival. Where your own courage and adaptability determine your right to live.

Svalbard is such a place. The northernmost habited island in the world, and a final frontier for the most enduring of species. A world frozen in time, sustained by mutual respect and symbiosis between man and animal – all at the mercy of the elements. A haven for those who live to disprove that which seems impossible. Where seeds of seeking the essence will blossoming to magnificence.

This raw, unforgiving nature is what inspires us – this solitary place at the top of the world where we’ve made our brewery, our home. Our beer is improbable, unlikely – and quite unlike any other beer in the world.

Can @ home. Pitch black body under a fine beige head. Aroma has dark, roasted malt, dark chocolate and some slightly boozy alcohol. Taste starts like sweet, dark roasted malt and dark chocolate, but then after a few more sips it does not feel so sweet anymore. The alcohol seems to make the beer dryer and the chocolate taste like very dry, dark chocolate. The bourbon flavor is moderate, but the alcohol sting is quite distinct together with some vanilla and wood. I guess this is not the first use of this bourbon barrel. Its not bad, but it might need some more sweetness to balance the alcohol.
