Amber color with nice pretty nice white, dying head. Aroma is sweet with notes of caramel, though there’s also a typical Slottskällan aroma of root vegetables, which I don’t find that nice. The flavour is better; sweet, malty with notes of caramel and some slightly warming alcohol. Not a bad bock, but the aroma was not that pleasant. joss (3144), Garching b.
