7.4/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
Bottled at Uptown. Hazy, orange beer with a lasting, dense, white head. The aroma is quite mild, with some fruityness, green apples-like, some spicyness and a hint of yeast. Flavor is belgo-fruity with a spicyness and some hints of pine. Light fizzy in the mouth. Long hop-bitter finish. The bottle has sediments, and the yeast gets more pronounced if you pour it in the beer. Rating: 6-4-7-4-15-3.7. (060103)[br][br]Bottle. Tried it one more time, this time at a higher temperature. Most of my rating stands, but raised aroma from 6 to 7. The aroma has more fruitiness, more medical bitterness and more hops when the temperature is raised from almost 0 degrees C. (060210)

First rating, from 2006Initial Rating Date: 2/4/2006Now this is a Christmas beer the way I want it!Dark red in color, lots and lots of spices in the scent and flavor, and of course the beer is a bit stronger than usual. The head is a bit brownish and stays beautifully.9/5/9/5/19=4.7Second rating, Feb 18, 200850 cl bottle from Systembolaget.Batch 311, brewed 170907, BB 170912.Boy did I get different sensations this time!Pours beautiful deep reddish brown with a tan to brown head. Smells malty and cloves, other spices, but not very fresh like l remember it, a bit stale. Taste is sweet, some spices, lots of hops. It has a harsh bitterenss and a sweetness that won’t go away. Medium to smooth mouthfeel, big bitterenss.New score:6/4/6/4/13=3.3. Rounding off to: 7/4/7/4/15=3.7RerateTried 2006 against 2007 bottle on September 5, 2009Both were darkish red with a smallish tan head. Scent is a bit spicy and matured, some chocolate with a smoother feeling for the 2006 bottle. Taste is mellow and smooth, a bit spicy and some roasted and chocolate notes. 2006 again is better and more mature. Smooth mouthfeel, low to medium bitterness.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pours a slightly hazy amber with a tiny head. Aroma of yeast and nothing much more. Quite low in carbonation - almost flat actually. Fairly full-bodied with notes of yeast, alcohol and extremely sweet malt. Lightly hoppy finish. Terribly disapponting for a Nøgne Ø beer - and I understand why the brewery has been hesitant to release this. They probably shouldn’t have. 290106
