473ml can. Pouts a hazy copper with a medium, foamy, long lasting, beige head that leaves thick, sticky curtains of soapy lace. Aroma of bready caramel malt, spruce needles and herbal hops. Sweet flavour of bready caramel malt, grapefruit, pine resin, earth and herbal hops in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average to soft carbonation. Tasty and enjoyable.

475ml can, many thanks to pictoman and BeerPlace. Shared with Finn. Unclear dark orange-brown body, big off-white head, rich lacing. Brown malty aromas, earthy, promising. Similar taste of nuts, earth, and caramel malts. Soft malty ending, mid-sweet. Medium bodied. Quite alright. (Tromsø, 07.06.2025).

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Amber colour, tan foamy head and aroma of roasted malt, caramel, nutty. Taste is sweetish, malty, caramel, bread, roasty hint, chocolate, tangy, with nutty bitterness. Medium bodied, medium carbonation, drying nutty bitter finish. Quite OK.
