We got a little crazy this episode. Martin found a classic bottle from Brekeriet, back when they only released 750 ml bottles in foreign webshops. Now you can find loads of their amazing beers in Systembolaget. Back in 2015 you could only get a a few like Sour & Salt. The fresh bottles are lightly tart with a nice saltiness. This hasn't aged as well as we had hoped. It was fun to try. Stefan brought a bottle from a new brewery from Smedsbo. Smedsbo Slott released Salzstout 2023. This implies an annual release but this is the first year of the beer. Coming in at 12.5% abv, it has salty liquorice note with a deep roast base. It's fun fine from an up and coming brewery.

All good things must come to an end. Advent 2023 Day 24 closes out not with a wimper but with a bang. It's time to celebrate with Narke Kulturbryggeri Kaggen Stormaksporter 2019. What an amazing beer. We really enjoyed this and it felt like the perfect way to end the calendar. It's been a great calendar with lots of surprises. We hope you enjoyed it as well and wish you a happy holidays!

Advent 2023 Day 11 give us one of the weirder beers we've had in a while; Dugges Lemon Curd Mega. We tried the Christmas Mega for the Systembolaget Christmas beer release. This is the third in the Mega series and it's really good. This is a bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout with citrus and vanilla. Lemon and bourbon barrel-aged stout sounds like a combo that shouldn't work. Somehow it works and we're really looking forward to future Dugges Mega releases.

Holy Smokes...it's our 8th Anniversary! Many said it couldn't be done. Others said, "Oh you're still doing that?" Many more said "Why?" Despite them, we don't know the meaning of the word quit! We're still going strong and keep releaseing an episode a week. We decided to go to Lund and visit the Bishop's Arms. Bishop's Arms pubs are all over Sweden. It's a national bar chain. Each location decides what beers to have on tap and in fridges. Some are better than others. The one in Lund is excellent. We start with Overtone Against All Odds. It's a collaboration with Allkin Brewing. This IPA is made with Cita, Citra Cryoc Cryo Pop and Solero hops. It's another solid beer from Overtone. Next we have the return of a favorite. Buxton and Omnipollo have relaunched The Beer. Formally known as Yellow Belly and Coward, The Beer is a peanut butter biscuit stout that contains no peanut butter or biscuits.  Like the podcast, it's a classic that keeps you coming back for more.

We picked two high ABV beers this episode from very opposite sides of the beer spectrum. We've been enjoying Polly's Brew Co. for the last couple of years and they are celebrating their 5th anniversary with a quadruple IPA. Five Years is a 13.2% ABV quadruple IPA dry hopped with mosaic and Idaho 7. It's intense. Evil Twin NYC Even More Kihoskh has been teaming up with Danish beer shop and convience store Kihoskh. This release called Even More Kishoskh is an imperial stout with an 11% ABV. It's got hazelnut, coffee and hazelnut coffee. This is a coffee beer first and foremost. If that's not your style, you've been warned.

Remember when Mikkeller used to make all sorts of beers and not just lagers and pilsners. What's on Tap Podcast remembers. We brought out two classic beers from the past to try them today. Have they stood the test of time? First is Mikkeller Black 2007, a 17.5% imperial stout that packs quite a punch. Originally it had whisky, vanilla, oak, chocolate and hint of liquorice. After that we try the Mikkeller San Diego Vanilla Shake 2019, a 13.4% abv imperial stout with coffee, vanilla and aged in bourbon barrels.

Martin is once again cleaning out his cellar. He found a couple of golden treats for us to review. Baghaven Granadilla Blend 1 is the only blend of this wild ale to date. Aged in French oak foeder and then aged on yellow passionfruit, this four year old wild ale is drinking great. Avery Mephistopheles is one of the big dogs of yesteryear. Avery releases these high abv stouts still but they are easier to find. Back in 2014, Mephistopheles was a very hyped beer. According to Untappd, they quit making it back in 2019. This 8 year-old imperial stout clocks in at a whopping 17.1% avb. How does it hold up after so many years? Listen and find out.

Keeping the Swedish spirit alive, we have two more local beers. Ability Brewing is located here in Malmö. It's part of Malmö Brewing and can be found exclusivly at their taproom. This is the first stout they've released outside of the taproom. Double Mash Vanilla Imperial Stout is an 11% ABV stout with vanilla. They don't tell us more than what's on the label. It's a dark roasted malt stout with lots of dark characters. Electric Nurse is from Ladvetter, Sweden. It's a little trip up north from here. Frog King is a Belgian strong dark ale. Also clocking in 11.5% ABV, this beer promises barrel-aged belgiany goodness. Sadly, it's not leaping very high.
