An exquisite dark amber beer. Easter is a time most Faroese people spend with their loved-ones, enjoying good food and company, so we made this seasonal beer to celebrate this tradition. The balanced flavours of selected yeast and two kinds of malt and hop give OKkara Vár its distinctly welcoming appeal, perfect for festive and family occasions alike.

Canned, thanks fonefan! Hazy pale nut brown, small head. Caramelly nose with some vegetables. Sweetish with medium body and clean mouthfeel. Syrup, caramel, honey, notes of canned peach. Low bitterness.

Can. An unclear, amber colored beer topped by a small, off-white to light beige head. The aroma is fruity and flowery, with some caramel, herbs and leaf wood forest. It’s medium bodied and soft on the palate, semi-sweet. Caramel, flowers and some citrus in the flavor, a bit too low on bitterness both at first and in the swallow. A decent one indeed, but too sweet I think. 141018
