Description
Kinn Bryggeri AS was incorporated in April 2009.

Here at Kinn we create craft beers in the English and Belgian traditions based on the purest mountain water from Sagafjella. Ancient craftsmanship - open fermentation and bottle conditioning - are important to us. None of our beers are ever pasteurised or filtered, and every one of them is brewed in our two breweries in Florø. Kinn beers are available off the shelf throughout Norway, and we also export to selected countries.

750 ml capped bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. Brew #64, ABV is 6.0%. Golden colour, slightly hazy, enormous white head that lasts "forever" and makes the beer hard to drink. Strong and pleasant spicy and yeasty aroma. The crisp flavour has also distinct spicy and "Belgian" yeasty notes, with a substantial hoppy "bite" in the finish.

0.75l bottle @ Henrik, Bergen. Pours a cloudy deep orange body with some dark sediments and a lasting small white bubbly head. Aroma is light and mild, fruity with that typical Kinn-yeast profile that really reminds me of mild ripe melon-zest. Full-bodied, has a smooth and creamy, almost velvety mouthfeeling and is medium+ carbonated. Low bitterness, fruity-sweet with green apples and slightly peppery. The spice and relatively high abv leave a mild burning aftertaste in the throat. Really nice tripel. A distinct mild alcohol note in the finish as well. So light and refreshing! Top stuff from Kinn this time.

750 ml capped bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. Brew #61, ABV is 9,5%. Hazy golden colour, huge white head. Very nice sweetish fruity and spicy aroma, typical notes of Belgian ale yeast. A hint of farmhouse too. The flavour is still fairly sweet (maybe too sweet), will probably benefit from a few years’ cellaring. Typical spicy and yeasty triple notes, some bitterness in the finish.

Tap @ Naboen, Bergen. Pours a semi clear light brown body with a thin bubbly off-white head. Aroma is low with thin notes of light, yet, exclusive caramel, some nice low fruitiness, grassy hops, and some dark nut-malty notes. Body is medium, texture is slick and somewhat oily, and the carbonation level is quite low. Good caramel tastes, flowerish and slightly herbal with a nice grassy bitterness. It really tastes like a good bitter should. Sometimes I think the traditional English bitters can get quite one dimensional and boring, but this is not like that at all. Ends in a fresh and kind bitter caramel finish. Good stuff!

Bottle from Førde Ølutsal. Pours a pale amber, with a full, creamy head. Pleasant malty aroma of light caramel/ toffee. Straight forward malty taste, with notes of caramel, and a dry, not very lingering, finish.

Bottle, at Tilt. Looking quite nice in the glass with it’s hazy, dark golden body and cute, white head. Oranges, some wheat and spices in the aroma. Some sweetness in the flavor which have a good dash of canned peaches as well as the oranges, wheat and coriander found in the aroma. Full-bodied and pleasantly carbonated. A little bitterness shows up towards the end, and lasts for a good while. A lovely quenching and refreshing witbier. 110211
