There is some pot calling the kettle black, but this hippopotamus of a woman is louder than two 3 year olds.

Luke 2/24 kommer direkte fra julenissens utsalg på Kvaddå: klar lys gylden med ok skum. Lys malt, litt citrus, litt urter og passe bitterhet. Grei nok forfriskning mens jeg lager middag, men ellers ikke noe å rope hurra for, rent bortsett fra at det (for en ganske rimelig penge , den lange veien fra Etiopia tatt i betraktning) ble et nytt bryggeri på meg i dag. 5% ifgl etiketten.

Rated at Suomenojan jätevedenpuhdistamo. Sweetish, slightly stuffy and cardboardy with hints of malts and earthiness. Decent, but quite easy going

(Can, 0.33l, thanks VastActiv, at VastActiv, 20240802) The beer poured golden and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had honey and sweetness. Palate was light bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were sweetness, honey and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet and bitter. Clean and dull.
