Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival 2008. A red-amber beer with a huge orangey head. The aroma is sweet maty with primary notes of caramel, but also light notes of hops. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of hops lending it a strong bittereness, but also medium notes of fruti, leading to a dry bitter finish.

hazy amber, frothy beige head, strong well hopped dry caramel malt aroma, rich crystal malt flavor, well balanced with lots of hop flavor but only a touch of light bittterness in the finish, only a touch of sweetness, a touch of this and a touch of that makes it quite drinkable overall,
