At the first sip, a warm, fruity sweetness meets roasted malt notes The hops join the mix and add a well-balanced bitterness, while the red fruit aromas bring a subtle acidity The impressive 11% alcohol content supports the warming effect as well as the creamy mouthfeel Towards the end, the red fruits paired with a hint of nut, dark chocolate and a hint of liquorice build up to a brilliant finale
