Bottle 33 cl. Pours a clear amber with an off-white head. Clean, sweet burned caramel in the nose. Medium body, sweet caramel notes but very clean and balanced with a decent amount of hops so nothing ever gets cloying or anything. Actually a very well made Amber. 100815

# 2000. Gylden brun noe tåkete med lavt hvitt skum. Lukter epler, trevirke og noe mineralsk. Smaker lett syrlig, noe søtlig mot karamell. Toast. Lett kort bitterhet i avsluttningen.

Amber colored beer with a beige head. Caramel and toast. Some light hop notes as well. Decent mouthfeel. Solid, but a little overly malty.

At the 1st tasting of 2015 in Belgrade-Serbia. Gladly shared by the friends of the Hoppy Imports from Greece. Pours amber color hazy with a decent white cap. Nose: bread crust, yeast working on the beer must. Mouth: maltiness, persisting bitterness, thin body. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

330ml bottle, L-292/13, ordered from Vinmonopolet bestillingsutvalget, picked up at the Langnes store. Clear golden-brown body, very hazy last pour with sediments. Off-white head, loose glass-lacing. Mild fruity aroma, mandarin and grapefruit, semi-dry. Moderate taste profile containing juicy malts with a twist of herbal hops. Bittersweet endnotes. Medium bodied. Quite smooth and clean in the mouth. Fair enough (Tromsø 11.04.2014).
