Lunator är dubbelbocken som vår bryggmästare sätter under årets första fullmåne. Sedan får ölet jäsa i lugn takt och lagom till att våren kommit till Grebbestad är det dags för tappning. Lunator har välbalanserad fyllighet och tydlig eftersmak av malt och humletoner. Servera ölet i cognacskupa och njut av ett unikt vårtecken från Bohuslän.

Red brown colour with small off-white head. Malty aroma with raisins and caramel and hints of alcohol. Sweet fruity aroma with a warning alcohol feeling. Also raisin and caramel in the aroma, smooth mouthfeel. This bottle is 1.5 years after best before date but it still have alcohol notes. But much smoother.

(Bottle 33 cl) Apparently the name refers to the moon, as this beer is only brewed once a year during the first full moon. Close to copper-coloured, quite limited head. Fat body, very malty with a pronounced hoppiness. Very close to an original German doppelbock. Delicious. 020603

Cloudy red- ark amber color. Mature malt aroma. Reasonable taste, malty and bitter enough, but also with some chemicals.

Thanks to Omhper for sending this from Stockholm! Minimal head comes from this clear deeply rubied brown beer. Rich malt with brandy soaked fruit in the aroma. Light on the tongue, this starts with some sweetness, not too overpowering, and slowly fades into a long finish with most of what it started with. A bit more maltiness, body and a better job of hiding it’s alcohol would improve this, but quite drinkable just the same.

Nut brown color, brown head. Full and complex sweet aroma of prunes, berries and malt. Full and complex taste too: berries, malt and coffee. Warming, a bit alcoholic aftertaste.

An unclear red beer with a fine disappearing beige head. The aroma is of nuts, caramel, and hints of wood. The flavor is malty sweet with notes of nuts, licorice, and chocolate. A very nice beer. Thanks a lot to Per (omhper) for trading this one with me.

Bottled - 2002 vintage. Dark amber with no head. Dusty aroma. Hugely malty, dryish and full bodied. very firm and dense maltiness, rich and wonderful. Balanced toasty bitter finish. Perhaps not overlycomplex, but wonderfully flavourful. This beer keeps getting better for every year, but sadly also harder to find.

Amber; thick, chewy malt nose, and a worty, malty body that gets leaner as you go. Swedes like to lay this one down for a year or two before consuming, although it is perfectly good immediately.
