330 ml can in cardboard cylinder, No. 1099 out of 1500, as Rygr Munin Cookie Dough Barrel Aged Imperial Stout (Berserk series), from Vinmonopolet Jørpeland. ABV is 14.5%. Pitch black colour, no head, minimal carbonaton. Boozy aroma of fusel, molasses, chocolate, vanilla, oak and whiskey. Extremely sweet flavour with the same elements, also (if you use your imagination) some cookie dough. Not worth the high price.
