Commercial Description:
This beer is our premium X-Mas beer. This beer is full of all the dark malts that we have at hand and display a full and complex malt taste, almost reaching in to the porter style. It has a balanced fruitiness from hops with a good mouth feel and smoothness, and a lingering aftertaste of roasted malts.

Dark brown with light quickly disappearing head. Very sweet aroma with dark chocolate, licorice and plums. Flavor sweet and malty, with dark fruits and liqueur-like notes. Finish is quite bitter, which nicely balances the sweetness, with a hint of warming alcohol. Medium to full bodied and somewhat oily on the palate. Could even be a bit fuller to support these strong aromas.

50 cL bottle. Pours dark brown and with a creamy tan head. Aroma is spiced and subdued chocolate malty. Flavour is quite spiced with a distinct roasted malt and little chocolate smoothness. Ends with a lingering spice note, somewhat acidic.
