500ml bottle at Café Sara, shared with Rebecca and Oda. Fair, bubbly, beige coloured head. Fragile lacing. Brown-reddish body colour. Caramel aroma added by hints of dark fruits. Balanced flavour of roasted brown malts and fruity hops. Fine bitter round off. Medium bodied. Well made version of the style (Oslo 28.03.2014).

500 ml bottle. Unclear dark brown body with an off-white head. Fine aroma of chocolate malt, slightly roasted and a hint of pine. Flavor is sweet caramel malt, chocolate and pleasant bitterness. Fine body and decent aftertaste. A safe version of a brown ale, still decent and well balanced. Nice to taste some of these recently improved Lindesnes beers.

Fra flaske på Cardinaltreff feb-14: mm, denne lukter godt! Litt bringebær i smaken kombinert med en god humlebitterhet. Fint skum, en passelig anelse av skjokolade og litt karamellfylde gjør denne til en god og varmende øl. Regn og kuling pisker mot ruten i skrivende stund her hjemme, kunne godt tenkt meg en flaske av denne akkurat nå!

Dark brown with a solid beige head. Hoppy aroma with some milk chocolate. Lots of hops and semi-dark malts in taste. Medium bitter aftertaste with chocolate in background. Well balanced.

500 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 6.2%. Dark brown colour, large beige head. The aroma has strong notes of brown and slightly roasted malts, also some fruity and piney notes of hops. The flavour is first distinctly malty with some sweetness, followed by equally distinct hoppy notes (fruity and piney) with a very bitter finish and aftertaste, some woody notes too. Lindesnes Brygghus has definitely left the pedestrian level of brewing!
