500 ml bottle, at Cardinal, Stavanger. ABV is 4.2%. Clear deep golden colour, huge white head. Pleasant aroma of malts and toffee, hints of stewed fruits and earthy hops. The flavour is not very sweet, but has still some hints of toffee and caramel, followed by distinct and sharp-ish earthy hops.

(Cask, gravity, at Pikkulintu Ruttopuisto, 20240118) The beer poured amber and clear. Its head was small, white and it lasted long. Aroma had earth, grass, fruitiness and malts. Palate was medium bodied with low carbonation. Flavours were earth, toffee, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty and bitter. Tasty and balanced.
