COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Editor’s note: made in cooperation with the gourmet licorice producer "Lakrids by Johan Bülow".

Danish: En brun-sort øl med beige farvet skumhat. Duften præges af lakridsrod og karamel. Smagen hviler et sted mellem en lakridssnegl og et pænt Piratos-punch. Den solide maltbasis bestående af Münchner, Wiener, Melanoidin, Karamel og Hvede malt, samt ristet byg, formår at bære lakridsen fint. Humlen er nedtonet og har kun til opgave at afbalancere lakrids og maltsødme. Der er anvendt både rålakrids og lakrids sirup.

NewTim (2) - NORWAY - APR 20, 2013 does not count
Bottle from CPH Airport. Light black color with medium head that vanishes quickly. Smells of coffee, liquorice and soy. Taste is dominated by liquorice, but also some chocolate and wood. Butterlike mouthfeel. Easy drinkable

500ml Bottle. The liquorice is a nice touch in this quality stout with some nice character. Liked it although one bottle was enough. For those special moments.

Foffern (737) - Bodø, NORWAY - FEB 20, 2013
Bottle shared with (and great courtasy of) the Bergen Tasting Crew. Has a deep reddish brown colour and a beige medium head. Aroma of licorice, coffee, lactose, dark chocolate and prunes. Sweet milk stout-like flavour with licorice, wood, dried fruit, leather and dark chocolate in the end. Has a silky mouthfeel, and a light to medium bitterness. A beer that gets better for every sip. A good sweet stout with a nice touch of licorice.
