Bottle. A nice clear, brown body is topped by a finger-thick beige head. The aroma is quite weak, with roasted malts, caramel and some hops. Roasted malts and caramel in the flavor too, with a touch of dried fruits, a little nutty note, sweetness and a decent hop level. Medium body. Roasted finish with some bitterness. A rather boring beer, but easy to drink and sure not bad. (081130)

Bottle at Chris o New Year tasting 08/09. Pale hazy gold colour. OK, blond, yeasty beer with some hop. No real character.

Medium shiny yellowish beige coarseish head doesn’t last. Hazy deep dark translucent red-brown body, Fruity bubble-gum and banana aroma with dusty roasty licorice and rye bread notes. Kind of separated into two independently harmonic aromas, but still works well. Dry-sweetish minty roasty dusty taste with tropical fruit hop notes. Faint bubblegum notes. Body is mid-to-thin, palate clean, delicate, and fresh. Delicate dry burnt coffee and minty papery aftertaste with faint chocolatey notes and some overripe fruit. Faint acidity throughout. Very nice, and highly drinkable. (0.5l bottle via KnutAlbert. Batch #848 or #842; hard to say for certain.)

500 ml bottle, brew #832. ABV is 4.5%. Very dark brown colour, nearly black. Nice and creamy tan head. Fine roasted aroma with notes of chocolate, mild coffee and wood. Flavour of roasted malts and coffee, hints of chocolate and dark fruits. Decent bitterness in the finish. A well balanced porter, the best product from Inderøy so far.

Bottle. (#813) It pours a nice dark golden to copper body with a good carbonation forming a dense, off-white head. Sediments in the bottle. Even though I left most of the sediments in the bottle, yeast dominates the aroma. Fruityness and caramel sweetness in the background. The hops are more evident in the mouth, where it gives a citrusy flavor and a pleasant bitterness. Fruity too, and with malt and caramel. Smooth, medium body. Maybe a bit on the sweet side, almost candy-like notes, but finishes with a nice fruityness and bitterness. A pleasant welcome from Norway’s maybe smallest brewery. (081120)

500 ml bottle, brew #838, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 4.5%. Amber to brown colour, moderate off-white creamy head. The aroma has malts, some fruit, juniper, resin and hops. Fizzy mouthfeel, could have been fuller. The flavour has resin, some malts and moderate "dusty" / dry hops in the finish. Not bad, but probably better with "trøndersodd" than on its own.

500 ml bottle, brew #830, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 4.5%. Deep golden to brown colour, slightly hazy, with a big head. The aroma has malts, some caramel, fruit and hops, also wood, juniper and resin, a hint of spices, maybe a faint hint of smoke too. The flavour is woody and resiny with decent hops, again with a hint of smoke. Has a flair of "traditional homebrew" this one. I like it!

500 ml bottle, brew #834, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 4.5%. Black colour, big to moderate creamy greyish brown head. Nice roasted aroma with notes of chocolate and coffee, some cheesy and slightly acidic notes too. The flavour is moderately sweet and roasted with a certain fruitiness, notes of coffee as expected. Ashy dry finish. Could have been better, could have been worse.

500 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. Brew #840. ABV is 4.5%. Pale golden colour, fairly clear, just a faint haziness. Big to moderate white head. Aroma of artificial "banana candy" (not very pleasant), also notes of honey, coriander and cloves. Fizzy mouthfeel. Like others have said the flavour is very estery and "wheat beer"-like, notes of coriander, cloves and banana (but not too much), refreshing and not too sweet. Moderate hops in the finish.

500 ml bottle, brew #816, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 4.5%. Dark brown colour, big and creamy beige head. Nice malty sweetish aroma with loads of caramel and fresh bread, also some fruity notes. The flavour is also malty with some bready notes, hints of caramel but not really sweet, moderate hops. Some fruity notes in the finish. Hints of resin in the aftertaste. Has not really got anything to make it stand out as a Yule/Christmas beer, but it is a nice and drinkable dunkel nevertheless.
