On tap at the brewpub. It’s a clear, golden beer with good carbonation and a good off-white head. Grass, apples, slighlty sourish and fresh nose with wheat and biscuits. Biscuity, fruity and citrusy flavor with grass and some wheat. Medium body, crisp mouthfeel. Grassy finish with pleasant bitterness. Very refreshing, but it seems to be slighlty infected. Couldn’t get a reasonable answer on what was intended, so I guess it’s the way he wants it. 091107

From keg at the brewery during the RBNAG 2009. Slightly hazy amber body with a descent beige head. Aroma is malt, caramel, butter and some acidity. Flavor is quite sweet malty, caramel, butter, acid, a bit metallic with a bitter finish. Medium body and a long finish that starts bitter and ends up sour. I had a opposite experience with the acidity in this beer copared with Glad Laks. The acidity didn’t feel to dominating in the start, but becomes more unpleasant at the bottom of my glass. Not totally wrong, actually quite promising, but to much acid.

From keg at the brewery during the RBNAG 2009, ABV is 4,7%. Almost clear, golden body with a nice white head. Aroma is light malt and acidic fruity. Flavor is also quite light malty with an apple type acidity and hint of yeast. Medium to thin body with an acidic aftertaste. I have problems to decide if I really appreciate the acidity in this beer or not. It isn’t rally unpleasant, but a bit odd in this kind of beer IMO. I think I might be able to get used to it at this level, but I won’t go bananas with my score anyway. A fun experience to visit the brewery anyway.

Rerate, sample from bottle at Edle Dråper-messen, Stavanger. Improved recipe. Fairly fresh character, but not acidic / vinegary. More hops now. I’m upping it a couple points. Original rating: On tap at the brewpub / farm / guesthouse. Cloudy brown colour, creamy head. Distinctly malty (carahell) aroma, also notes of yeast, caramel and some pinewood, just a little hops (Saaz). The flavour is very fruity and acidic, unfortunately well on its way to vinegar, some residual sweetness. Minimal hops.

On tap at the brewpub / farm "gasthof". Served by the brewer himself, I also had a brief look at the brewery. ABV is 3.75%. The only beer on at the moment, but "Mørk Suldøl" is also a regular and the low ABV "Slåttøl" is a summer seasonal. The farm / brewery is situated next to one of Norway’s best salmon rivers. "Glad Laks" (= Happy Salmon = Jolly Fellow) is a golden lager, slightly hazy with a moderate head. Pleasant but moderate malty aroma, hints of butterscotch, toffee and melons. Flavour and mouthfeel are rather weak, with too modest hops. Some "dusty" / "dry" hops in the aftertaste. I expect the "Mørk Suldøl" to be better than this.
