3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20Bottle from Mane Liquor. Pours a black with a superb looking, dark sinister head which lasts for the duration. Nose is mild, dark chocolate, light espresso and what I assume is the akevitt coming through - kind of gives it a subtle green cucumber and citrus mix, like a half gin half vodka concoction. Taste was a surprise. Light sour oaked notes coming through the heavy cocoa tones. Light biterness but the subtle sourness really shines here. Works very nicely. Very nice beer and an unusual barrel aged one at that

Flaska från doorstepbrewing, drucken på norgeprovning. Som i fallet med den vanliga dark force en ganska stickig och vass munkänsla, men här i kombination med en syrlighet och körsbärssmaker funkar det lite bättre. Fortfarande lite udda, men inte så tokigt.
