Bottle 33 cl. Gushes out of its bottle pouring a raddish brown with a big but fading white head and an aroma of molasses, brown sugar, ripe dark fruits, sweet malts, raw fish and sweet chocolates. The taste is pretty plain sweet, very malty and with notes of caramel, plums, sweet grapes and some sweet herbs. Not really a finish, just a sweet flavour staying in your mouth for minutes.

Good brown beer. I saw the brewery and have to say that it looked very good. The beer as a nice color, not to dark, just lovely brown. The taste was not clear but still good. The alcoholpercentage was not to high so I like it for once a week.
