Bottled. Clear, low-carbonated, copper-colored beer with a decent off-white head. Aroma is mostly caramel. Malty, light sweet flavor with roasted notes. Ok mouthfeel for a klasse D (below 4,8% alcohol) juleøl. Finish is light bitter with a roasted twist. (051207)

Bottled. Golden with a decent white head. Grainy aroma that turns into something vomit-like if you take a real sniff. I can’t see that this one has anything with christmas. Not much flavor, but some citric acids is found. Some grains too. Decent bitterness in the finish. (051206)

Big tan, creamy head; clear dark red body. Tight, not too strong, harmonic aroma of chocolate, some coffee, and, treacle. Deep and firm taste of sweet malts, notes of chocolate and coffee, maybe burnt bread. Almost oily mouthfeel. Very nice lightly burnt aftertaste lingers on. Taste is as harmonic as the aroma. Very good, if a bit mild. This has to be easily the best Norwegian bock.

(Bottle 33 cl) 4.7% ABV in this version. Pilsener golden with a nice, creamy head leaving some lacework. Slightly watery mouthfeel, but smooth. Good malty feel and a dry, hoppy finish. For a cheap pils this is not too bad. 261105

Big, offwhite, somewhat creamy head; deep dark red body. Sweet malty aroma with notes of straw- or grass-like hops. Taste is full of sweet malts initially, followed by sweet, caramel and chocolate malts, and relatively mild grassy hops. Overall, an OK beer. Ok for Christmas, ok for any other time. Not that interesting.

(Bottle 33 cl) Pilsener golden with a fairly decent head. A bit too heavy in carbonation. Light aroma of malt. Flavour is also dominated by malt with typical low alcohol notes of cardboard. Quite light, dry body. Weak bitterness in the finish. 251105
