500 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 8.5%. Brown colour, small off-white head. Aroma of brown malts, brown sugar and Belgian ale yeast, hints of spices. The flavour has the same elements, not too sweet , moderately spicy and quite enjoyable.

hazy orange with a brown note, beige to slightly light brown head.
quite malty aroma, also a tiny bit of notes that is similar to oxidation or perhaps you could say cellary notes, the quite strong malty sweetness has a fruity note i cannot pin down, it resembles, slighlty, the banana fruity note you might find in a german hefe - but this time only as a fine subtle note into the sweet malts. the totality in only a few words would be sweet malty with overripe fruity notes. flavor is malty, sweet slightly fruity syrupy note, you could say sweet malty with a lot of character. also reminds me of polish strong supermarket ale (same boozy sweetness) so.. it's not entirely fantastic. in the end it's more like a cheap booze-bomb, than something more refined. tastes like a headache if you drink a few of these boys.

Bottle. Clear orange, amber body under a one finger sized, dense tan head. A bit mild aroma with malt, some caramel and hint of dry fruit. Taste is medium sweet malt, some caramel, some dry fruit and a spicy touch. Medium body and average aftertaste. Not what I consider a brown ale and not much funk to find either. More like a decent, average beer somewhere in between a pale ale and a Belgium dubbel.

A quite nice and fine beer But not really a brown ale, and not really funky either Hazed nutty in the glass with a small tan head Ok intensity in the aroma Balanced sweetness and a fine carbonation level Easy to drink Very malty flavor. Also fruity and some spiced notes [Bottle from Vinmonopolet in Halden, Norway]

500ml bottle carried back home from Vinmonopolet City Nord in Bodø. A beige head resting on top of a cloudy orange body. Crocheted lacing. Promising smell of caramel and dusty hops. Caramel up front to the taste buds, added by a apricot bite, lightly spiced. Ends dry and smooth with a little warmth from the alcohol. Pleasing. (Rating session with lmojoh, Finn and djoeye, Tromsø 03.12.2020).

Spandert av Rune. Delt med ham, djoeye & lmojoh. Amber. Litt uklar. Lett maltaroma. Smaken søt frukt. Tørr etter hvert. Grei nok.

0,5 flaske (gave fra Ovesen Sr.), delt med skibsrederen ombord på Fridtjofen feb-20: lett uklar rødlig kobber med tett skum som varer helt ned. Deilig duft av appelsinmarmelade, granskudd og aprikoser. Krydret smak (belgiske gjær?) med samme inntrykk. God bitterhed og mundfølelse. Alkoholen er tdelig til stede og varmer både mage og sjel. En effektiv juleøl velegnet til helårsbruk.
