On draught at Bishops Arms, Järntorget.
Black colour, brown head. Smoked sausage and tar in aroma, along with sweet and sour sauce. Really fruity and dark flavour profile. Pretty big on residual sugars and jammed with smoked sausage. Salty. After is sweet and sour. Did not sense any peticular bitterness.

Jan 1, 2010 500ml bottle bought at Ølbutikken in Copenhagen in May last year. Bubbly, tan coloured head partially resting atop of a body that is black as a moonless polar night. Fragile lacing on the glass. Extra score for the cool label design. Roasted cocoa and coffee hints to the nose. Smoked malts in a flavour profile that also brings liquorice, dark vanilla and rum sweetness offset by tart, dark berries towards the finish. Smooth on the swallow. Surprisingly easy to drink. A good start to the New Year (Tromsø, New Year’s Day 2010).
