Not too shabby. Or sheepy.

Mørk amber. Middels høyt luftig skum som daler sakte. Lett maltaroma. Smaken karamell. Tørr - svakt bitter avslutning.

Aus der Dose (bbe 09.03.2022) im 2022-01 getrunken. Diese kupferne Ale hat Aromen von Getreide, Äpfeln und Hopfen. Am Gaumen ist die Apfelnote nur schwach ohne jegliche Säure wahrnnehmbar. Aber die Getreide und Hopfennote werde durch ein ganz feines Honigaroma ohne Süsse abgerundet. Es ist ein recht süffiges Bier!

Süffiger, mild süßer Malzbeginn. Röstnoten steigern sich zum Mittelteil hin, wenig herb, im Hintergrund etwas Schokolade. Süffig bleibend, ausgewogen, mittellanger Abgang. Nett! 8/10/10/10/8/10

Da habe ich mehr Heavy Metal erwartet. Zahmes, aber nicht schlechtes Dunkles. Viel Süsse, wenig Hopfen, wenig Röstaromen.

Dark lager from the second brewery that was ever established on the Faroe Islands (and now the oldest, since the first one, Restorffs, went out of business in 2007). Bottle of about half a year past its expiration date, but nevertheless many thanks to tderoeck for this country tick, one I've been looking for since quite some time now... Thick, frothy, egg-white, very mousy, membrane-lacing head, retaining well over a clear, deep bronze-hued ruddy amber-coloured beer. Clearly 'aged' aroma of old cotton cloth, wet cardboard, dry tea bags, autumn leaves, hard caramel but without much of its sweetness, walnut shells, a bag of old rubber bands, dry cookies. Sweetish, but clean onset, very light sourish touch due to lively carbonation that will last throughout the entire beer; rounded, tad resinous body, peanutty and dry cookie-like maltiness with more caramelly sweetness to it than expected based on the nose, alas a bit metallic too; obvious cardboard-like oxidation retronasally, but less strongly so than orthonasally. Tea-ish herbal hop bitter accent in the finish, pairing with a slight toasty-bitter tail of the malts, so in all, maintaining a good balance between sweet and bitter - and in fact ending more bitter than is usually the case in a Wiener, because that is essentially what this is, a member of the rather elusive amber-coloured lager style introduced by Anton Dreher in Vienna in the 1840s, though the stronger and 'fuller' German style Dunkelbock is not too far away either. The cardboard effect from aging is unavoidable here, but in spite of that, I can still taste that this beer was altogether quite well made within this style, so I'll happily drink a fresh one whenever I come across against it again.

Bottle at a tasting. Slightly astringent, probably from dark malts. But also light coffee flavour, generally malty, drinkable. Slightly empty and a bit metallic. Drinkable, average.
