Bottle @ fonefan tasting. Nice head with good duration. Color is amber. Aroma and taste are caramel, nuts, malt and hops.

Sample from a 33cl bottle at Gjerberg Bryggeri. Pours dark amber with an off-white head. Sweet malty and caramelly with hints of dried fruits, vanilla and spices. Some mild, yeasty notes and a hint of alcohol. Medium sweet with some dryness and bitterness in the finish. Quite decent, but a bit to sweet for my taste. (2014-02-15)

Shared 330ml bottles visiting Gjerberg Gårdsbryggeri. Spotty lacing from a large beige head. Close to clear, amber coloured body. Malt-fruity taste with a touch of dark spices. Spiced caramel flavours. Mid-sweet ending, moderate roastiness to it. Dominated by malty sweetness. Alright in smaller amounts (Tour de Østfold, RBNG 15.02.2014).

Bottle 330ml @ Gjerberg Bryggeri, Rakkestad
Pours slightly hazy amber with a off-white head. Aroma has notes of malt, caramel, yeast, nutty and some fruits. Taste is light to medium sweet and light bitter. Body is medium, texture is thin to oily, carbonation is soft.

Bottle, thx to Cunningham. It’s an unclear, brown beer topped by a finger-thick dark beige head. The aroma is quite weak, mostly on the malty side, with caramel, bread and roasted malts. The flavor has a light fruityness and some bitterness in addition to the bread and caramel known from the aroma. Medium body, nice carbonation level. Roasted malts and caramel in the finish. Well, not my kind of Christmas beer, but it slides down. Rating: 4-3-5-3-9-2.4. 121116

Bottle, at the brewery. A clear, amber colored beer with a dense, finger-thick head. Some yeasty hints in the aroma, with dried fruits, caramel and crystal malts. It’s full-bodied and semi-dry, with a nice carbonation level. Dried fruits, caramel and a little bitterness. Long finish. A pretty nice one, sure better now than last time I had it. 140215
