Brewed with Simcoe, Chinook and Nelson Sauvin hops, the caramel and chocolate malts complement piney, tropical fruit and citrus flavors and aroma. At 40IBU, this beer is not overly bitter, and the finish is a grapey/wine note from the Nelson Sauvin hops.

Missed review from 28.8.2016. Light brown creamy head stayed on hazy dark reddish brown body. Malt & pine aroma. Full mouth feel, crisp & dry on the palate. Almost sour tasting with pine, citrus, hoppy, stone fruit, sour plum but also a malty & caramel back. Not my favourite style but a decent beer.

Can from Beyond Beer. Definitely reddish brown, big off-white head. Nose has a bit of caramel, and mild lemon-orange citrus. Slightly astringent, too-much-caramel taste I often associate with red ales. Pretty dry between that and the hop bitterness; a bit skewed for my taste.

On tap at Goblet Beer Store, Zagreb. Hazy dark golden to amber, small lasting creamy off-white head. Lightly to moderately hoppy, overripe fruit, leaves, toast, a bit out of shape. Some honey and malts. Toast and cardboard flavour. Thin, some bitterness. Soft to moderate carbonation.

On tap at The Castle, pours a clear amber with a small white head. Aroma brings out light resins and bready malt. Flavour is not that hoppy, with bready malt and a hint of caramel. For the name, I expected more hops. As is, this is pretty lame. Disappointing, especially for Lervig.
