Fairly new Vinmonopolet store located in a big and busy shopping mall in the North of Stavanger, at Tasta. I wanted to order just a couple beers I couldn't get anywhere else locally - then it took off, and I ended up with beers (many Christmas seasonals) for more than NOK 3500. Friendly and helpful staff.

440 ml can, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 11.1%. Malts are Pilsner, Vienna and Aromatic. Hop is Magnum, spiced with Grains of Paradise. Dark brown to black colour, moderate to small beige head. Aroma of moderate Aromatic malts, caramel and Grains of Paradise. Pleasant flavour of malts with hints of chocolate, and fairly distinct Grains of Paradise (leaving a discrete warmth), moderate bittering hops. More British than Belgian, but a nice and enjoyable beer anyhow.
