440ml can. Hazy orange-brownish body, fawn-coloured head, shattered lacing. Spiced farnyard aromas with dried fruits, inviting. Likable taste profile with kveik yeast, dried fruits, oats, and juniper. Prolonged finish. Well bodied. Like it (Tromsø, 11.07.2026).

Ruspleie i friluft, en 0,33 dåse ved Sverd i fjell: uklar gylden med fint skum som varer. Steinfrukter (papaya, epler) og tropiske frukter, fin urterbitterhet og god maltkropp. Ganske bitter avslutning med kveik og høy.

Tap at Sørlandets matfestival 2026. Unclear golden body under a small off-white head. Aroma is dominated by passion fruit with a touch of acidic fruit. Taste is plain and refreshing with some malt and quite balanced passion fruit. Some balancing acidity. Thirst quencher.

Can at Sørlandets matfestival 2026. Unclear amber body under a moderate sized tan head. Nice aroma of malt, toffee and some dry fruit. Taste is super smooth, sweet malt, mild toffee, dry fruit and balanced bitterness. Alcohol is warming but well integrated, does not feel like above 10% at all. Superb balance between sweetness, bitterness and alcohol.

Bottle at Sørlandets matfestival 2026. Clear amber to brown body under a tan head. Aroma has malt, acidic red fruits and toffee with a wooden touch. Taste is sweet malt and caramel balancing against mild vinegar and sour fruit. Some oak and a little spicy touch also to be found. Balanced body with sweet and sour aftertaste. A nice mix of too totally different beers that integrates totally with each other, I’m not able to taste any of the base beers here. Fine balance between sweetness and acidity as well. Reminds me a bit about Rodenbach, but without the acetone.
