Bottle @ home. Slightly unclear deep amber body under a small beige head. Aroma is malty with bread, mild caramel, hint of dry fruit and red berries. Taste is balanced, sweet malt, bread, light caramel, red berries, just a faint hint of dry fruit, herbal yeast, moderate bitterness and well masked alcohol. Balanced body with a nice, malty aftertaste. Nice and somehow a bit complex, at least quite many flavors in taste. Not the most typical quad but not closer to anything else either. I was a bit surprised and found it difficult to rate the first bottle, but luckily, I had another. The second one where served a lot colder, about 6-8 degrees and I think that suits the beer best. Enjoyable.

Luke 15 i min hemmelige (?) adventskalender, delt med meg selv: lett uklar rødlig mahognyfarge med ok skum. Velgjørende anslag av røde bær, tørkede frukter og madeira, samt litt urter (for helsens skyld) og sjokolade. Fint karbonert, og det høye innholdet av humørfremmende virkestoffer gir raskt et lite bluss på lampa.

Relativt pålitelige notater fra godt besøkt føradventsmøte i Jæren Fråholdslag: klar gylden med fint skum som varer. Svak aroma av lys malt, urter og furunål. Noe tydeligere smak av samme. Fin bitterhet i avslutningen.

33cl bottle (huge thanks to Finn for bringing this one all the way to Estonia!). Pours hazy golden with a modest, but persistent, white head. Hoppy and fruity, with citrus dominating, notes of pine, herbs and resin as well. Medium to moderate sweet with medium flavour intensity and a pretty decent bitterness. Hoppy, refreshing and enjoyable.

500ml on tap at Kooperativet Bar. Next to clear golden body, covering white head, fair lacing. Modest smell of grass and grain. Citric moments to the taste profile with a hint of berries. Mid-dry fruit-berry finish. Just okay. (Vadsø, 24.10.2025).

330ml on tap at Mølla Bar og Spiseri. A covering white head to a misty golden body, spotty lacing. Moderate aromas of citrus and cereal malts. Hints of pineapple and orange to the taste buds backed by a fair fruity bitter end. Refreshing and food friendly. Easy to drink. (Vadsø, 24.10.2025).
