Flaske fra polet: skjønner ikke hvorfor jeg ikke har ratet denne før, den fortjener virkelig stor oppmerksomhet. Kremet, sjokoladebrunt skum. Et storartet brygg med deilig aroma av kaffe og røstet malt, rik smak med mørk dominans og litt nødvendig sødme som minner om 70% sjokolade (lett bitter). Tørr avslutning og god, kaffeaktig ettersmak. Enkel, men stilig etikett!
