Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This one was the low scoring of the old batch and that was probably due to the low ABV. It's just been watered down too much. Light int he flavours that has lightly overripe fruits and roasted wood with some caramel and grassy notes. The empty glass dies off pretty fast.
