On tap@ Håntverkeren. Slightly unclear pale golden body with one finger thick, lacing white head. Weak aroma of pale malt with a hint of fruit, no particular kind of fruit, just something kinda fruity. Flavor goes in the same direction, some light pale malt, perhaps some wheat as well? The feeling of something fruity and moderate bitterness. 30IBU, really? It doesn’t feel like that at all. Quite thin bodied and short in aftertaste. OK, this is light and refreshing but has nothing to do with an IPA in my book, not even a Session IPA. Tastes like something in between a golden ale and a pale ale. Made in co-operation with a famous chief, what kind of food do you serve here, salad, white fish or perhaps shellfish? Alone without any food this felt one-dimensional and boring. Otherwise, no faults.

Bottle, at Håndverkeren. An almost unclear one, golden in color, with a small white head. Herbal aroma with gale and a generic forest touch. Mostly pale malts in the back, with a nice fruitiness. It's full bodied, soft and with a dry, lightly bitter touch. Fruity, herbal flavor, some bitterness and a backdrop of pale malts. Lasting dry, fruity and herbal finish. A quite nice herbal beer. 190928

Bottle backlog May 2017. Clear, dark amber body with a small beige head. Quite strong aroma of coffee and dark chocolate. Flavor is medium sweet, dark chocolate, hint of coffe and bread/toast. Medium to light bodied and average aftertaste. Decent, but perhaps a bit plain.

Unclear yellow golden pour with a fine head Ok lacing. Looks nice Powerful myrtle aroma. A little bit high carbonation level. Tad fizzy mouth feeling Ok duration They have used a lot of myrtle here. They do as usual kill everything else I know….. So not much spruce or juniper left in the flavor [Bottle from Master Bobba50]

Bottle @ Haandtverkeren. Slightly unclear golden body with a fine off-white head. Complex aroma of malt, pine, wood, wet forest, mushroom and Myrica gale. Flavor has much of the same ingredients as found in aroma, but in some kind of surprisingly easy drinkable way. The first sip feels a bit odd and heavy, than in some strange way it feels more and more refreshing. With some parallels to a belgium tripple, the first sips can feel to sweet and sugary, then there is some kind of fruitiness making it quite refreshing. It’s not obvious to sort out all flavors, for me this was a bit like tasting, finding and then some flavors almost disappear and something else comes forward. The most dominating flavor is pine and Myrica gale but there is a lot of things happening here. Fine body and long lasting aftertaste. This was for sure a really fun beer to drink, and it tastes nice as well.
