500 ml bottle, from Coop Extra Øvre Årdal. ABV is 4.7%. Golden colour, large white head. Aroma of yeast, and piney and fruity and slightly spicy hops. Lively carbonation, but not as overcarbonated as some other beers from this brewery. The flavour is yeasty and citric, with decent hops. Could be a decent beer if it wasn't so yeasty.

500 ml bottle, as Kvernafossen American Ale Amber, from Coop Extra Øvre Årdal. ABV is 4.7%. Reddish amber colour, huge off-white head. Overcarbonated. Aroma of moderately roast malts, some piney and fruity hops too. Fizzy mouthfeel. The flavour has distinct notes of amber malts with some roast, and piney hops. A slight sweetness, but lacks fruitiness. Moderate bitterness. Not the worst from Kvernafossen, after all.

RBHD-samling hos RB-Bryne. Med denne forlot vi brått komfortsonens hovedmanesje, hvor vi hadde delikatert oss med noen herlige ratinger. Derfor blir dette kanskje en urettferdig vurdering (rett etter Cold Hand Malus Danica). 0,5 flaske. Brunsvart med fint skum som varer. Overmodne solbær og bjørnebær iblandet sur kaffe. Direkte usjarmerende.
