500ml bottle bought at Vinmonopolet Sentrum, Tromsø. Bright naked surface to a deep, palisander coloured body. Vapour of alcohol with smell of cranberries and raisin. Taste of cranberries, dark malts, dried fruits and caraway added by a good amount of warming alcohol. A slow sipper that is heavy to drink and perfect for sharing. Two bottles will remain for some years in my cellar (shared at a rating session with Elisabeth and Stefan in Tromsø, 03.01.2012).

Bottle at Hanne på Høyden, Bergen. Deep dark redbrown colour with nearly no head at all. The aroma is dominated by berries, nail polish and alcohol. Powerful in the mouth with a mixture of berries and wood. Very slick and gives a big mouthfeel. Overall a heavy beer and needs some years in the beer cellar. Works better along with heavy desserts.

0.5l bottle. OK. The strongest commercial Norwegian beer ever! Nice... It’s a deep dark caramel-brown body with a small bubbly heavily sidesticking off-white head. Lovely raisin and vinious aroma with concentrated caramel. In a psychedelically moment smelling this actually felt like wandering through a hedge with two black eggs in your hands. Strange but quite interesting. It actually has a little hint of carbo-level and the mouthfeel is really sticky. Warming and full-bodied this one is, with lots of sweet and alcoholic flavors; OK, I agree that this is not something you drink alone, (even though I think it’s definitely possible) and if you’re ever to use the small 0.25l bottles, this is perhaps the perfect beer for the occasion? Raisin and chocolate flavors before it ends in a dry-chili stinging aftertaste. Have a couple of these in the cellar that I will pop in a couple of years. A both rough and sweet beer that’s a worthy finisher in our Christmas beer-tasting-night 2011. Good night.

Dark brown look, average beige head. Malty sweet aroma, liquorice notes. Medium sweetness and lightly bitter on the taste, liquorice and some dark berries hint. Medium body, oily feel, average carbonation and thath malty sweet finish. Good one.
