Can at Havnens Vin Og Tobakhus Juleølsmagning 2025. Pours opaque black with small white head. Aroma is intense dried ginger, malt, black pepper, pine needles, and honey. Taste is medium to very sweet, medium bitter, and light salty. Body is oily with medium carbonation. Finish is long and medium sweet and medium bitter with intense notes of dried ginger, black pepper, mild chili, malt, and spice. Too much dried ginger for my taste.

A fine smoked lager! Mild smoke but I overheard one Londoner say that it tastes like the brewer "barbecued the beer" 😆 One of their Oktoberfest offerings.

Notater fra en aldeles utmerket hyggelig dag på Våland Brygghus, her en 0,44 kanyle fra min importkoffert, delt med Johan, Bernt og Tor: brunsvart med fint skum som varer. Herlige inntrykk av nybrent kaffe, mørke 70%-chokolader, brente brødskorper og hint av bjørnebær (eller blåbær, som protestsangeren kommenterte). Tørr, slank og delikat. Imponerende for et øl med såpass lav voltstyrke.
