Shared 330 ml bottle at Cardinal, Stavanger. The ABV of 21.9% is the highest that a "beer" (or "wine") may have in Norway - if any higher, it would legally be a hard liquor / spirit, and dispensable in bars only in 4 cl shots. Dark brown to black colour, minimal head. Aroma of fusel and spices. Extremely sweet flavour, distinctly spicy, also notes of bourbon. The bottle is definitely for sharing!
