On tap at Haand Beer Festival 2013, Drammen. Dark brown colour, moderate beige head. Pleasant aroma and flavour of mildly roasted malts and chocolate, also distinct notes of "Christmas" spices. Noticeable hops too. Not too sweet.

50 cl. bottle. Dark brown colour - almost black -with a big, creamy light tan head. Sweet aroma with chocolate and roasted malts, red berries, coffee and a yeasty citrus note. Taste is light bitter. Medium body, creamy texture, a bit to carbonated. Finishes bitter - too bitter for a brown ale, almost like a stout - with coffee, roasted malts and yeasts. More sweetness would be appreciated. Still a nice beer.

Brown color, hazy, with creamy head and with yeast under the cap and in the neck of the bottle. Aroma of dark caramel and old timber lined pub. Smooth mouthfeel, too much carbonation; some flavor of roasted malts and dark caramel, with a sandy and dusty mouthfeel; strong bitterness and light oxidization.

Bottle: Poured a clear dark brown color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some light lacing. Aroma of roasted caramel malt with light dry coffee notes. Taste is also dominated by caramel malt with limited sweet notes and a dry aftertaste with light coffee notes. Body is average with good carbonation. Standard offering with some bland tendency.

500 ml bottle @ Patricks. Nice looking dark brown body with a disappearing beige head. Nice aroma as well, dark caramel malt, mild coffee and chocolate. Flavor is sweet malt, caramel, relatively mild coffee, chocolate and pleasant bitterness. Medium plus body, OK aftertaste. Quite good and pretty straight forward.
