Crosling (1730), Loveland, Colorado, USA Nov 30, 2007 Swingtop bottle, consumed out of my Olfabrikken glass. Beautiful pour. Deep, enticing nose. Brilliant intensity, revealing heavily roasted malts and burned black fruits. Excellent mouth feel.
Olfabrikken truly is one of the best breweries in the world.
