6/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 5 Flavor 6 Texture 8 Overall 6
750ml bottle, nr. 15021, 5.9 % abv, kindly shared by djoeye. When opened the wire cradle cork gave a big shot followed by smoke from the bottle neck. Hazy apricot coloured body. Filmy layer. Smell of brown malts, bread and tobacco. Honeyed sweetness to the flavour profile with even more sweetness from the caramel impact. Quite tasty, but far too sweet after a few sips (session with Finn and djoeye in Tromsø 16.07.2014).

750ml bottle, butelio 12026, 6 % abv, kindly shared by djoeye. Big shot when opened. Dissipating fawn-coloured head. Dark red coloured body, slightly hazy. Earth and dusty hops on the nose. Sweet flavours of caramel, prunes, and herbal hops. Mild roasted ending. Fine bodied and drinkable, however, much too sweet for a higher score (session with Finn and djoeye Tromsø 16.07.2014).

750ml bottle, nr. 18323, 5 % abv, kindly shared by djoeye. Topped by a wire cradle cork that gave a big shot followed by smoke when opened. Remaining thin white head. Unclear orange-gold coloured body. Quite prominent smell of smoke, honey and wheat. Unusual taste profile of bread, herbal hops, earth, minerals and honey sweetness. Some spices are also included towards the ending. Smooth in the mouth. Interesting and tasty stuff (session with Finn and djoeye, Tromsø 16.07.2014).

Medium beige head. Clear deep dark red body. Earthy fruity butterscotch aroma with nutty oily notes. Sweet earthy nutty oily taste with potatop crisp and herb notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft mouthfeel.
