Draft. A dark red beer with a huge orangey head. The aroma is very sweet with strong notes of bread and medium notes of malt and grain. The flavor is sweet and very malty combined with notes of bread, caramel, and grain, leading to a lightly bitter finish, where the caramel note lingers.

From tap at Ølbaren. Pours dark brown, clear, orange glare and a dense light tan head. Caramel malt, butterish and slight breadish aroma. Candy sugarish note too. Sweet breadish and caramel malt flavoured. Distinct sugarish sweetness yet somewhat balanced by a subtle bitterness. Breadish, sweet toffee and caramelish finish. A bit too toffeish and sweet for my liking.

Bottle 50cl. @ home.
