A spiced sour brewed with cranberries, hibiscus, honey, toasted cinnamon, and cloves.

Taste: Like exploring a market in the dead of winter, your taste buds dart down avenue after avenue - toasted cinnamon alley first, sweet rich cranberry sauce next, all guided by balanced acidity. Floral notes from hibiscus leave a lingering touch before juicy cinnamon and cloves come back again.

330ml bottle bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Dissipating beige-pinkish head, dotted spots on the glass. Misty red-orange coloured body. Smell of spiced berry skins. Red berry tartness to the taste character, lightly spiced by cinnamon. Drying end, tart and sweet. Just alright, not a favourite. (Tromsø 18.04.2019).

Aus der Flasche (bbe 29.08,2020) im 2019-03 getrunken. In diesen Sour Ale mit all seiner spannenden Zutatenliste kommt gleich Gedanken an Weihnachten auf. Die leichte Säure, das schöne Fruchtaroma und dann dazu dieses schöne Zimt- und Nelkenaroma. Im Abgang war auch ein leichten Pflaumenaroma zu entdecken. Ich denke die Aromen in diesem Ale brauchen noch etwas Zeit, damit mehr Harmonie in das Ale kommt. Schönes leckeres Teil!

Bottle at Maltainen Metso. Red colour, small off-white head. Gingerbread spice and red berries in the nose. Medium-bodied. Sourish. Tart cranberries and gingerbread spices in the flavour. Christmas beer ... kind of. Tolerable although not something I would like to drink more.

Thanks jinroh for sharing the bottle! Poured into a cup showing amber brown with sparse white foam. The nose shows moderately intense tart notes of cranberry and cloves. The palate is well carbonated and light bodied. Moderately tart with light notes of baking spice.

Bevuta in bottiglia. Aspetto torbido. Acidula. Gli aromi si sentono molto. Buona ma speravo meglio.
