750 ml waxed bottle, from Vinmonopolet Sandnes Kvadrat. ABV is 14.9%. Pitch black colour, small brown head. Boozy aroma of dark malts, rye whiskey, molasses, oak, chocolate and vanilla. Warming mouthfeel, as expected. Boozy and medium sweet flavour too, with the same elements as the aroma, also distinct bittering hops. Impressive beer, but hardly worth the high price.

May 2023: 330 ml green bottle, from Asia Matbutikken, Jørpeland. Golden colour, pours fizzy with a shortlived small white head. Sweetish sickly aroma of artificial "strawberry" concentrate. The flavour is not as extremely sweet as I feared, but still sweet. Artificial "strawberry notes again. No bitterness.
