7/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7
On tap at Nøgne Ø, Zwanze Day. It pours a red, lightly unclear, to brown body with no head. Cherries, almond and some diacetyl-ish notes in the aroma. Rather funky on the palate, full to medium bodied, with a low carbonation level. Semi-dry, with flavors of cherry, some almond and a light diacetyl touch I suspect is related to the cherries more than to the brewing process. Cherry dominated finish. Quite decent this one, might of course be that I’m strict on the score after a bunch of Cantillon beers, but I think it’s more or less just a decent beer that neither impresses nor disappoints. 161001

On tap at Nøgne Ø, Zwanze Day. An unclear, golden colored beer with a dense, white head. Lightly funky aroma with the mostly piney hops dominating. A hint of alcohol and some sweetish maltyness blends in. It’s quite dry on the palate though, pleasantly carbonated, lightly warming and full-bodied, with a nice bitterness. Piney hops and some malty sweetness too. Lasting funky and bitter finish. Quite pleasant this one, indeed. 161001

33cl bottle from Meny Kolsås. Pours hazy organe with a modest, white head. Fruity aroma dominated by citrus with notes of tropical fruits, pale malt and hints of yeast. Moderate sweet with refreshing fruity citrus flavours and a pleasant bitterness. Easy to drink and quite enjoyable. --- Beer merged from original tick of MK Ultra on 04 Mar 2017 at 17:19 - Score: 6
