Bottle, nearly out of date, from the local offy. Clear as a bell, copper amber colour. Thick, foamy, lasting, beige head. Nose has malt loaf. Some sour fruit. Granary bread. Some nuts. Taste is lightly sour, with some sweetness on the lips. Light body. Slightly sour, vine fruit bitterness to finish. A bit odd, what with the sour thing going on, but I didn’t mind it overall.

500 ml bottle conditioned, from Gulating Ølutsalg, Stavanger. ABV is 4.5%. Very dark ruby colour, moderate beige head. Aroma of moderately roast malts, only hints of vanilla and orange peel. Slightly sourish flavour with moderately roast malts, slightly dry. Hints of orange peel, surprisingly little vanilla for a beer called "vanilla porter". Very moderate hops.

500ml bottle conditioned: BB Feb 18. Drank at a friends house on 4th July 17. Dark amber/brown body, decent white topping. Smouldering Peat Bog sort of a beer, thought it OK but I am not a smokey sort of guy.
