What about the beer?
Colour is black with a small tan head. Aroma has sweet chocolate, alcohol, coffee and roast. Taste begins with biting bitter salty liquorice. Bitter dark chocolate and roasted
salty liquorice take powerfully over with a hint of coffee on the side. Towards the end dark chocolate gets extra-strong in all aspects: bitterness, cocoa and saltiness. Aftertaste has roasted dryness,
strong bitterness and alcohol warmth and lasts long
If the Evil Twin Jeppe Jarnit-Bjergsø really thinks that this beer is
a metaphor for freedom, then freedom is unleashed power and
aggressive overwhelming show of strength. And if it is, I don't oppose.
If I should take the brew as a declaration of love, then
I would expect something wild, violent and unexpectable. As a beer,
this is extreme and superb.

Smooth but rough. Since the brew jumped straight among the ones on the top of my list, it gets joined by a long-time favourite song and an alternative one. First it's the bearded dudes and the favourite.

Then we get to the declaration part. I would never offer this brew to anyone as a declaration of love, unless... See, that was your dirty imagination working there. No. Never.
