Bottle. Pours dark brown, with a finger thick creamy head. Aroma is burned malts and cold coffee. Flavour is quite acidic with burned malts and coffee. Quite ok; nothing more, nothing less.

Fra flaske en hyggelig lørdagskved på Cardinal: litt karamellmalt og lett syrlighet - ok munnfylde med passe blanding av sødme, lett bitterhet og fruktighet. En god start på kvelden, men "kraftig fruktughet og maltpreg" er det da ikke.

500ml bottle bought at Meny Oslo City, shared with Finn back home. Deep dark brown body covered by an off-white head that stays well. Grainy chocolate nose. Taste of chocolate malts, quite nicely balanced by a semi-tart touch that lingers for a while. Smooth in the mouth. Decent brown ale. My rating no. 600 of a Norwegian beer (Tromsø, 13.02.2013).

Bottled, thanks KnutAlbert! Clear nut brown, mid sized head. Salty ashy nose. Dry with clean mouthfeel and light-medium body. Slender and distinct with salty finish. Slightly strange saltiness, but good drinkability.
