Nøgne Ø Mirage is a blend of new and old beer fermented on our oak barrels. Crush dry and balanced, with a full mouthfeel. Complex taste of citrus, sour apricot, grape, grass, grain, umami and vinegar. Brewed with Norwegian grain: barley malt from Ringsaker, raw wheat from Landvik and oatmeal from Stangeland Mill.

On tap at Patricks. A lightly foggy golden colored beer with a minimalistic white head. The aroma has a touch of higher alcohols at first, soon mellowing, with melon, berries and peach fruityness. Some malt hints. Leathery, barnyardish funk, some pale malts. It's tart and dry on the palate, nicely carbonated. The flavor has a funky touch of hay and barnyard, with berries, peach and some melon. Lasting funky, acidic finish. A bit young perhaps, but nice indeed. 240418

Bottle, 75cl. A mostly clear dark golden colored beer with more or less no bubbles on top. The aroma has a good dash of berries, in a quite generic way, with some gooseberry sticking out. Apricot, orange and grapefruit zest and a touch of grains too. Oak, funk and vinegar. It's quite dry on the palate, softly carbonated, with a vinegary sourness. Apricot, gooseberry, grass and melon hints, some grains and oak and a good dash of vinegar. Lightly vinous too, with notes of leather, tobacco and horse sweat. Lasting puckering finish. Sure, it's nice, but I find it too vinegary, and that removes much of the drinkability for me. 231031

(Keg at Craft Beer Helsinki 2023) The beer poured deep golden and lightly hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had wood, sourness, tartness and fruitiness. Palate was medium bodied and dry with medium carbonation. Flavours were tartness, fruitiness, malts, tartness,, wood and bitterness. Aftertaste was fruity, woody and bitter. A delicious tart brew.
