500ml bottle at To Rom og Kjøkken. Next-to-clear golden body, slowly diminishing white head, fair lacing. Moderate smell of cereal malts and grass. Flavoured with grassy hops, mild bread-like malts and with a backdrop of semi-sweet grain. Just okay with the fish. In friendly company with Åsne and Jorun. (Trondheim, 15.04.2026).
500 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet Sandnes Kvadrat. ABV is 10.2%. Black colour, moderate tan head. Aroma of roast malts, hints of coffee and liquorice. Pleasant and medium sweet flavour, roast malts and distinct notes of liquorice, hints of Christmas spices, moderate hop bitterness.
Bottle. Malty, herbal and fruity. Some yeast too. The malt feels quite spiced and almost rye-like, hints of hay too. Grass, pine cone hints and some resin. Not my kind of beer, but it might work with some cured meat or sausage. 545411 251221
