Bottled at Söderbärke Mikroölfestival. Clear golden, minimalhead. Buttery nose. Mid-sweet and grassy with some butterscotch. Light-medium bitterness with short salty finish. Primitive.

Norrbotten must be located somewhere around the eastern Gambia, because this vaguely caramelly, watery, simplistic lager wouldn't stand up a to a real winter.

Pale amber in colour. Neutral nose, save from some acidity. Medium bodied, rather dry, roasty and with lingering bitterness. A big step up from the first beer from this new brewery.

Sadly this beer is sub par. The beer is golden coloured, has a quickly vanisishing, airy head, and a neutral -almost sourish nose. The body is not much to speak of, and the bitterness is low. As this brewery is brave new one can only hope quality improves with time. I wish them the best of luck in the future!
