Bottle, 65cl. It pours a clear, amber beer with a small, dense, off-white head. The aroma blends caramel maltyness and resiny, piney hops in a quite pleasant way. The flavor does the same trick, with the bitterness coming strong towards the end. Full-bodied and warming. There’s caramel maltyness, resiny and citrus peel-like hops. A pleasant one indeed, although there’s something with it I’m not too fond of. Can’t really pin what it is though. 120218
