From tap at the brewpub. Pours slight hazy deep brown/amber and with a dense light brown head. Mild malty and nicely smoked aroma. Soft mouthfeel, medium bodied. Flavour is a nice blend of sweet notes, malt and smoke. Slight meady and malty mixed into the finish with a nice mild smoke note on top. Finish is mild, not much bitterness just a gentle lingering malt and light smoke note.

From tap at the brewpub. Pours clear hazzlenut brown and with a dense off-white head. Sweet caramel malt and with distinct note of brewmash. Very classic Apollo flavour, quite sweet and with a solid bitterness lingering in the far finish. Has a minor nutty note and a vague berry fruity note, but overall malty to slight dry. Alcohol provides some smoothness to give a medium body and appears in the far finish flavour. No butterish notes. Nice, although not thrilling.
2nd batch: From tap at Apollo. Pours dark orange, slight hazy. Dense slight off-white head. Sweet malty aroma. Cane sugarish sweet to woody flavour. Light spiced flavour into the finish. Light fruity to mixed malty and lighted spiced finished.6-3-6-3-11=2.9

Draft. A hazy deep red beer with a thick orange head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of butter, and lesser notes of spices. The flavor is weird with notes of butter, spices, and dark sugar, leading to a dry bad finish. I could’t finish my glass.

Draft. A hazy amber beer with a lazing medium orange head. The aroma is sweet with light notes of butter, fruit, and honey. The flavor is sweet malty with light notes of butter and straw, as well as a cloying note of fruit, leading to a dry fruity finish, which very late is added a metallic note.

On tap at the brewpub. (as Bryggeriets IPA, 5.5%) Clear, deep golden pour with a medium sized, off-white to beige head. Apricot dominated nose, not much else to offer. It is nice though. There’s some sugary sweetness as well. Fruity flavor, mostly apricot here too. Quite sweet, in a pleasant way. Medium body with a nice level of carbonation. The finish has apricot and pineapple and a nice bitterness. A bit one-dimentional, but nice. (071006)

Draft. An unclear amber-brown beer with with a thin orange head. The aroma is sweet spicy with notes of chestnuts, malt, and caramel. The flavor is sweet spicy - especially cloves combined with notes of chestnuts and caramel, leading to a dry woody finish. Too strong chestnut notes in the flavor for my liking, but still as far as I remember the best chestnut beer I’ve had.

On tap at Apollo. Poured almost clear, with a bronze color and a nice, dense, beige head. A bit vague aroma, mostly fruity from the hops, and could use more maltyness. Tropical fruityness in the flavor, with a rounded bitterness that continues into the finish. There’s a little warming alcohol touch to it as well, coming stronger in the finish. For an oktoberfestbeer it is low on the maltyness and heavy on the hops, but it was quite drinkable. (071006)

From tap at the brewpub (ABV: 5.9%). Pours beautiful red/hazzlenut brown with a dense off-white head. Sweet malty and butterish aroma with a slight spiced note. Flavour holds a soft citric/bitter note above the mild malt base. Not really sweet nor dry, medium. Slight bitterness in the finish, but once again - buttery. Has a note of cardemomme in the far finish.
