Decent and easy drinkable brown ale.
Clear nutty color with a fine thick off white head. Looks good. Ok lacing. Moderate intensity in the aroma. Medium body and a fine carbonation. Tad sweet and a moderate bitterness. Bready, mild fruity, mild grassy and some roast in the flavor.

From bottle on board Fridtjofen 29.06.16. Slightly hazy golden. Slightly uneven, but persistent off-white head and lacing. Soft aroma, with some citrus and marmalade. Similar taste, with some malt and earthiness. A bit waterish.

Flaske fra Gulating Vestkanten, delt med Einar: lett uklar gylden med fint skum, kniplinger som holder seg helt ned. Floral aroma med citrusfruker og gress. Noe jordaktig sniker seg inn i smaken, og bitterheten i avslutningen har desverre litt metallisk preg i seg. Halvtørr og nokså kort. Meget elegant logo, både på etikett og kork! Humlene er Goldings, Citra, Cascade, Chinook og Columbus. Mer informasjon fra etiketten legger jeg inn i commercial description nå.

Klar gylden brun med to fingre høyt eggegult skum. Lukter blomster, fudge og noe trevirke. Lett. Smaker tutti frutti, plommer og lett karamell og honning. Lite bitterhet. Kort.

Hazy brown. Beige, medium foam. Malty aroma. Flavour containing some hints of roasted caramel and malts. Anonymous for its style. The brewer must have been very carefull with the ingredients!
Sampled at Catweazle’s great drinking session 10.06.2006.
