500 ml can, from Helgø Meny Kvadrat. Cola colour, large to moderate beige head. Aroma of malts, caramel and pumpernickel bread. Very sweet flavour with loads of malt sugar and caramel, also notes of pumpernickel and liquorice. Low bitterness. --- Beer merged from original tick of Egils Maltextrakt on 07 Aug 2024 at 17:03 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 4 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 3.5.

I tradisjonen med maltøl (må ikke forveksles med Stjørdal maltøl). Maltrik og fyldig, men god på en måte. Langt mer tolererbar en andre eksemplarer av stilen.
