Cloudy yellow-greyish. Aroma of.weissbier. More like Holtens Hvete than an ale. Misses the style completely. Wrong colour, wrong aroma, wrong taste, wrong everything. Crap!

17.10.2013, 0,75l bottle @ home:
Nice creamy mediumlasting head. Aroma is sweet spices, light malts, hay, citrus, yeast and some kind of strange saltyness. Taste is pretty neutral and boring, light malts, hay, harsh grain, weeds, yeast. Longlasting mild bitterness, slightly harsh dry mouthfeel. Next!

Bottle at home. Has a hazy light orange colour and a very big and creamy, off-white head. Aroma of Belgian yeast, spices, citrus and hay. The flavour is a light version of the same with some alcohol in addition. Fresh though. Has a slick and light mouth feel, and a light bitterness. A fresh and spicy ale, but the flavour is a bit careful.

Gusher, but managed to contain it. Medium white head. Hazy opaque amber body with light carbonation. Light mealy banana and cloves aroma with earthy ashy herbal notes. Dryish-sweet mealy earthy banana taste with pea notes. Mid-bodied. Slightly prickly, mealy mouthfeel. Dryish earthy mealy fruity aftertaste with banana and herbal notes. It’s OK, but a bit harsh and muted. (0.75l bottle, from wine monopoly, Vika, Oslo.)

Fizzy ved helling. Minner lite om en eng alene. Tørr, litt tynn og med gjærpreg og lite humle.

Holtens Ale, 750 ml swingtop bottle, from Vinmonopolet Verksgt., Stavanger. ABV is 5.1%. Golden colour, slightly hazy. Huge white head. Moderate but fresh aroma, notes of yeast, honey, herbs and floral hops. The flavour is herbal and medium sweet, too modest on the hops, but still fairly decent.
