650 ml bottle, from the Norwegian importer. ABV is 8%. Cloudy deep golden to brownish colour, moderate to low white head. Strong hoppy aroma, notes of pine, spruce and tropical fruits. Distinctly hoppy flavour too, medium dry, notes of pine and grapefruit, hints of crushed white grapes and tropical fruits. Bitter aftertaste. Very good. Would certainly buy again. * Now available at Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger.

Sample from bottle at Beer14. Pours hazy deep golden with some sediments and white head. Slightly yeasty and quite fruity aroma with hopy notes, citrus and spices. Medium to moderate sweet. Slightly strange, but quite drinkable.

Can thanks to Big Dave. It pours clear dark amber with a small white head. The nose is earthy, toast, cocoa, charred wood, light smoke and grapefruit. The taste is wood, resin, caramel, smoke, citrus peel, toast, toffee, date and raisin with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Not a whole lot to it. Alreeeet.

This one has some roast, some fruits and a bite of alcohol also. Bitter honey. Feels sticky and sweet - but accompanied with fresh hop bitterness. Bourbon barrel feel comes out as well. Long, warming bourbon aftertaste. I like it.
