Today's dinner beer: Elfsborgs lösen, named after the payment Sweden had to pay the Danes twice, in 1571 and 1613, to get the fortress outside today's city of Gothenburg back. Classic porter made by Majornas Bryggeri.

Finishing off with a quadruple and then an imp stout, both from Electric Nurse (brewery started by an electrician and a nurse). First one called "Gothia klubbmästerskapsvinnare" (!) and a bit too sweet for my palate.
The second is simply called "Imperial stout" and feels just like what it is: a matured version of a classic, bitter porter. Very nice to finish off with.
Both from 2018, so five years old!

@tastingcraftbeer Hope to try that Tonka by Moersleutel, sounds delightful!

@stoutwardporterman Reasonable! Just had a Utilitarian Chocolate by Swedish Akia here. Imperial, but not too boozy when had as is. A bit of cocoa, but no milkiness, no pastries around. Pleasant!

@stoutwardporterman Any point in drinking the cinnamon milk before coffee? Sounds (without having tastes them) like the opposite would be better, to me. Or didn't you want to finish off on a sweet note?

This evening's #darkbeer is Forte from O/O Brewing. A bit on the boozy side, but nice as a winter warmer. No fuzz except a hint of sweetness. New label not at all to my taste, but let's not judge the beer by its cover.

I love beer and am a big fan of lagers. I'm ready to dive further into the world of dark beers. Any type or brand recommendations?

@quare_swally @beersofmastodon Best brewery of 2022 is still Stigbergets (www.ratebeer.com/brewers/stigbergets-bryggeri/16153), but favourite beer Kustens Porter by Majornas (www.ratebeer.com/brewers/majornas-bryggeri/28445). Gothenburg rocks in #darkbeers and others!
@phyl @beersofmastodon You're right. Some chocolate with them, perhaps. Vocation makes wonderful #darkbeers .
First post!
Visited brewery-owned pub Stigbergets Fot (Stockholm, Sweden) yesterday. Tried their #darkbeers American Porter and Day Zero. First one a rather classic #porter (not as American as some others) and the second a sweet, but not overly so, #stout. Recommended!
