Bottle 33 cl. Dark brown with an orange hue and a small off-white head. The nose has sweet raisin and distinct peated smoke and a little iodine. Medium body, low carbonation, sweet dark dried fruit with lots of peat, tar and iodine. Subdued bitterness in the finish but some alcohol. I’m far from a fan of Islay beers, but this one I found quite interesting. 050211

(Bottle) Dark brown colour with lasting, beige head. Roasted, malty nose with dark bread, vanilla, coffee, dark chocolate, hints of dried fruit and orange peel. Roasted, malty taste with notes of dark bread, cocoa, vanilla, black coffee and a dry finish with hints of ashes and a rather mild bitterness. Medium body, clean and short lived mouthfeel. A bit artificial, but decent vanilla porter.

Pen flaske 0,33l kjøpt på Systembolaget i Luleå. Veldig lys med et lavt skum. Overraskende sterk fruktig aroma. Appelsin. Myk munnfølelse. Deilig fruktig smak: Sitrus. Smaken toner ut i en forsiktig fruktig bitter ettersmak som blir tørrere og tørrere. En utmerket pilsner. KI=6

Small white head. Paleish yellow body with light carbonation. Rubbery lemon zest and mango aroma with floral notes. Dry-sweet lemon zest and mango taste with grainy strawy notes. Mid-bodied. Mild mouthfeel with bitterish edge. Dry rubbery mango and flowers aftertaste with chalky lemon zest notes. Decent, but a bit rubbery and artificial. Not very pils-like, either. (0.33l bottle, Systembolaget, Charlottenberg.)

Bottled:
Pours a dark (almost black) brown colour with a mid sized head. Big Islay Whisky aroma. Flavour is lots of salty liquorice, ash, smoke and char coal. Seems to get a lot of not-so-good ratings; can’t say that I understand why.

Bottle. Dark brown with a small head that disappeared quickly. Ok aroma of whiskey, smoke, some licorice and light roasted malt. Taste of smoke, licorice, wood and some light roasted malt. Light body with an almost watery mouth feel, short aftertaste. Not an impressive Imperial Stout.
