Bottle, 6.8%. Fruity, vinous aroma. Nicely roasted flavour, creamy and vinous. Some port. Barley bitterness, but hidden by alcohol. Could have done with a lot less fruit.

50cl bottle- Dark brown with a tan head and tinges of red in the colour. Not very dark for a porter and reminiscent of A. Le Coq Porter in appeance but still quite attractive. Fruity aroma with raisins and other dried fruits. The aroma is also slightly vinous and alcoholic. Roasted, malty taste with coffee and plain chocolate which is pleasantly bitter in the aftertaste. Very good.

Bottle. Clear, a bit pale golden, with a white head. Grainy nose with hay, grass and hops, quite decent. Sweet and hoppy flavor with a nice bitterness. Medium body, and a nice bitterness in the finish. Quite nice. Rating: 4-3-4-3-9-2.3. 070928
br>Can. A clear one, golden in color and with a finger-thick white head leaving lacings. The aroma is lightly sweetish, mostly fruity and with some grassy hints. The flavor is a tad sweet I think, but with a decent bitterness and fruityness. Medium body, soft carbonation. Lightly metallic in the end. Sure drinkable, but too sweet for me. 120516

Bottle. Deep garnet-brown with a big, foamy tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate and some red fruit. Sweet corn flavour, but tempered by a bitter finish and some fruitiness. Enjoyable.

500 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal pub, Stavanger. ABV is 5%. Pale golden colour, large head. Moderate sweetish aroma with notes of pale lager wort, hints of maize (corn) too, some fruity aromatic hops. Moderate carbonation in the glass, soft mouthfeel. The flavour has some malty sweetness and tolerable hops in the finish. Not too bad for a standard pale lager, but I preferred their Pilsener.

500 ml bottle, bought at Ole Simon, Sandnes. ABV is 4.6%. Pale golden colour, large and lasting head. Flowery and sweetish aroma, okay. Fairly hoppy flavour. Deserves the name "pilsener" - I’ve had many a "pils" that was far worse than this one. This is a quite good one, actually.
