Flaske delt på på RBDH-samlingen hos Asle Bjørn: rødbrun med kort, storboblet skum. Lukter tang, fjære og grunnsmøring. Treverk, vanilje og sure sokker. Sære greier, her trenger jeg lang tilvenning.

Flaske, hentet fra dypet av Fridtjofen, og delt på RBD-samlingen hos Asle Bjørn: flott skum. Aroma av mørke malter, skokrem og gjær. I tillegg er der noe kjemikalieaktig i smaken. Som sur kaffe som har blitt stående lenge på trakteren? En særpreget bitter, for å si det diplomatisk. "Interesting" ville kanskje en høflig engelskmann sagt.
