Norrlands Djup is a powerful Swedish bock beer with 6.8% ABV from Spendrups Bryggeri, serving as a stronger and deeper variant of the popular Norrlands-Guld family. It is a loving tribute to the endless, wild forests and primeval landscapes of northern Sweden, brewed with spring water, finest pilsner malt, and three different hop varieties into a robust lager beer with balanced bitterness and remarkable character. In the glass, it appears clear and golden yellow with a medium white foam head, where an aromatic interplay of malt sweetness, fruity notes of apples, pears, and a hint of banana and honey, as well as subtle grainy-malty aromas, transition into a full-bodied, malt-rich taste with a pleasant hop bitterness and a slightly alcoholic-spicy finish. Norrlands Djup is the perfect choice for those seeking a high-quality, full-bodied, and characterful Swedish bock beer with Nordic depth and forest spirit, convincing as a worthy companion to hearty dishes, grilled meats, and aged cheeses, as well as a delightful proof that the forests of Norrland reveal their mysterious depth in every bottle.
