Copenhagen 22/2 2021. 50 cl bottle from Meny, Søborg Hovedgade, Søborg. Dark blue version of Holbæk's brewery usual design supplemented by a blanket of snow.

Pours opaque dark brown with a small off-white head. Bubbly. Settles as a thin rim of foam running along the side of the glass. No lacing.

Aroma is moderately intense with a sweet, dark malty odor mingling with spices and licorice. Brown sugar, toffee, peat and salty licorice. The Sage is not really coming through.

Medium strong carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, tingling texture.

Flavor is medium intense with a strong sweetness followed by a moderate bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter with a notable sweet undertone. Lingers for a bit. Finish is semi-dry.

Pretty light for a Stout designed to bring warmth in the cold months.
