From a 500ml bottle on 5/10/2011. Pours a clear reddish amber with a big foamy head. Has a quite a big malty, fruity, musky aroma. The flavours are similar, with sweet dark fruit and caramel malt, balanced by a medium to firm hop finish. Has a light body. A nice, tasty bitter at just 4%.

Bottle from bakken. clear caramelly nutty brown, smooth offwihte head. Strong spicy/herbal note, bitter, VERY british, very potent aroma, a bitter that actually also is powerfull in the aroma. Flavor is also very spicy and herbal, but with great finesse, An aromatic bitter that in fact tastes really good. You would not suspect this one being only 4%, body is full. Great beer. One of the most flavorfull bitter style beers iv’e had.

50cl bottle. Poured dark amber color with a creamy, lasting white head. Aroma is floral notes and lavender. Nutty, toffee flavor with some fruity notes. Slightly bitter and dry finish. Another delicate beer from this brewery.

500 ml bottle. Beautiful, deep red body with a medium tan head. Mild malty aroma with a hint of citric fruit and grass. Flavor is soft and smooth malty, some caramel and some citric fruit and mild bitterness. Not really strong in flavor, but smooth, balanced and quite delicate. Nice as a session beer.

Red ale. Quite a malty start followed by a mid of hoppy bitterness. Not too dry, a nice appetiser beer.
