Malt and hops are beautifully married in this full-bodied, copper-red Pale Ale. Red Seal is generously hopped for a long, spicy finish. An excellent accompaniment to grilled meats and rich sauces.

Bottle from Vinmonopolet. Pours a good amber colour, with a very noticeable and pleasant aroma. A full well balanced taste, with a nice hint of bitterness. Nice, almost creamy texture, with a hoppiness towards ESB. Overall a recommendable beer, all though a "metallic" touch to the palate prevents an even better experience.

12 oz. bottle, pours a cloudy dark golden amber with a sizable white head. Aroma is a spicy balance of hops and malt. Flavour is follows, with a spicy aftertaste. Well done.

12oz shorty bottle. Medium thick orange-red color. Thin but steady off-white head. Nice mixture of earthy hops and amber malt in the aroma. Smooth and medium bodied, with a light West Coast bitterness. Not terribly exciting, but certainly a well crafted Amber. Not as malt centered as most ambers, more balanced by the hops. A classic Amber, pretty good.
