Bottle at Kalfaret Brygghus. Pours a deep red brown colour with a compact light beige head. Lovely aromas where chocolate and leather being most dominant. I find the same stuff in the flavours with additions of dried fruit and some brown sugar. A good malty body here with a nice aftertaste. More bitterness than I expected. Despite of this it reminds me of, and would be, an excelent Christmas beer.

Dark amber color in the glass it has a malty aroma with some hazlenuts. Taste is heavy caramel with roasted fruits. Almost a chewy texture to it. Nice finish.
