Canned 330ml. -Trade with faroeviking, thanks Jacob!
Clear amber coloured, small off-white head, malty caramel nose. Moderate sweet malty, sweet caramel and bitterish hoppy with weak dried fruits notes. Bitter sweet finish. One of the best Faroese beers so far.

Can I reckon from ogivlados trade with faroeviking (thanks!) Poured a lovely amber-red body with a small off white head. Nice sweetish fruity, malty nose with light notes of caramel and chocolate. Ok, slightly caramelly malty taste ending a bit acidic (hop). Bit fruity, raisins? Simple and likeable. Perhaps the best beer I’ve had from the Føroyar!
