UPDATED: JAN 5, 2022 Bottle. It's close to black in the glass, topped by a dense, two-finger light tan head. Cute lacing. The aroma is lightly oxidized, with licorice, roasted malts, some coffee and dark chocolate, some biscuity notes and a touch of alcohol. It's full-bodied, lightly warming and quite sweet, with a faintly boozy hint. Roasted malts, licorice tending towards molasses, coffee and chocolate hints, brown sugar, some piney, citrusy hops and a very soft hoppy bitterness. Lasting finish. Pleasant, tasteful and moreish. Perhaps a bit sweet, but sure nice. 220105

UPDATED: DEC 27, 2021 500ml bottle, batch 2435, bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Good looking with its durable, bubbly, tan coloured head over a coal black body, crocheted lacing on the glass. Attractive aromas of grainy chocolate with additional elements of biscuit. Lovely malt-driven taste of coffee, chocolate, ash, and brown sugar. Roasted chocolate malty ending, long-lived and nicely warming down the swallow. Great sipper for a long Saturday eve. Maybe a little too sweet in the long run. (Tromsø 18.12.2021).
