This beer is called Heksen & trollen, that translates as Witches & Trolls. Why? We know why but we don't tell! The beer is a Saison, an old Belgian and northern France beer-style. At high temperatures fermented to make it very spicy and refreshing. Lots of citrus in the taste, but with a bitter finish. Light cloudy, blond. Formally known as White Witch

330ml bottle, as Heksen & Trollen, from Vinmonopolet Bestillingsutvalget. Celebration beer, rating no. 10000 and ten years since I started rating at RB. Shared with Finn. Pours a hazy, yellow-gold body topped by a stable white head. Fair amount of lacework to the glassware. Aromas of citrus, yeast and floral hops, slightly perfumed. Spiced fruity taste joined by wheat and modest notes of yeasty fruitiness towards the ending. Smooth on the swallow. Medium bodied. An extra score for the name of the beer. Celebration qualities, alright (at Finns in Tromsø, 08.02.2016)
