Sample at SBWF 2015. A bit hazy amber with a medium head. Aroma of hops, grass, grapefruit and some hints of berries. Similar taste. The finish was quite bitter. A descent one.

Big beige head. Clear deep dark red body with light carbonation. Fruity gooseberry aroma with faint dusty roasty notes. Dry-sweet roasty earthy gooseberry taste with fruity notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft mouthfeel. Dryish fruity gooseberry aftertaste with roasty dusty wooden notes. Lovely. Drinkable, balanced, and harmonic. (0.33l bottle, from wine monopoly, Strømmen. Batch #35.)

On tap at Naboen Pub, pours a deep dark brown with a reddish tinge and a small beige head. Nose brings out toasted malt, a little dark fruits, and some English bready malt. Flavour brings out a good balance of resinous hops and bready malt. Finishes with a decent astringency that is well-placed. Very good stuff.
