(Cask at Market Porter, Borough, London, 23 Nov) Dark amber colour with small head. Fruity nose with dried fruit (apricots, prunes). Fruity taste with dried fruit and a nice dash of earthy hops in the finish. Rather uncomplicated but a nice session ale.

Amber coloured. Low level foam. Sweet caramel aroma. Fresh hoppy taste and hints of dried fruit. Moderate palate. A bit dull (Half pint on gravity at the Ipswich Beer Festival, 22.09.2006).

Bottle 0,5l brought home from Jorvik Viking Centre in York. Golden colour. A large lasting head. Fruity aroma. A good full flavoured bitter with nutty and fruity hints. A lasting bitter aftertaste.

Jorvik ale in a pure stylish 500ml bottle. Brownish-golden in colour. Rocky head with nice bubbles. Pleasant hoppy aroma. Barley and dark fruit flavours ending in a bitter aftertaste. Rather thin body (shared with Finn, 26.07.2006).

An amber beer with a nice brown head. The aroma is sweet though with hints of sourness as well as notes of caramel. The flavor is dry hoppy with notes of roasted malt. A beer with a fine balance.

Sampled cask conditioned at Akkurat, Stockholm, Sweden.
Nut brown. Some mashed apples in the nose. Sweet and clean with medium to light body and a flowery, salty bitterish finish. A drinkable cask ale that offers nothing extra.
