330 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal pub, Stavanger. ABV is 8%. Golden colour, fizzy and foamy large head. Pleasant fruity aroma and flavour with notes of spices. Relatively light bodied for its strength, the alcohol is well hidden. Nice.

Two 330ml bottles at Blå Rock Cafe enjoying a concert with Wild Billy Childish & The Musicians of the British Empire. Huge, rocky white head, slowly fading. Great lacing. Slightly unclear amber body. Sweet aroma with a yeasty touch. Fruity and spicy flavours with candy sweetness behind. Bitter notes at the ending. Foamy mouthfeel. The alcohol strenght is hardly noticable. Quite refreshing, but much too sweet (18.05.2007).

Bottle: Poured a brown amber with white color head and lots of carbonation. Fruity hoppy aroma. The taste was a sweet floral and alcohol aftertaste.

(Bottle) Pale amber colour, slightly hazy, with huge, firm off-white head. Fruity, spicy, rather sweet nose with notes of yeast, caramel and canned fruit. Rather sharp alcohol notes as well. Fruity, spicy taste with notes of dried apricots, caramel, canned fruit, raisins and a sweet, fiery finish with warming alcohol notes. Tasty, a bit unbalanced, but not at all bad. Thanks to the Satyricon banana boys for this one.

Reddish tinted orange beer, slightly hazy; good pinkish head, leaving textbook lace. Fruity, but not at all lambick-y. There’s some hops discernible, which is very surprising, historically speaking. Very fruity initial taste, travelling towards near nauseating grainy, porridge-like flavour. The onset, even slightly sourish, is the ONLY reference to this once superb beer from the 70-80’s (which used to be a mix of spontaneously fermented beer and top-fermenting ale). Medium bodied; refreshing but not overly sour. Aftertaste is a bit perfumed, like a bathroom product. Disappointing? Seen what I remember from this beer of yore, that doesn’t come even close. I cannot dissociate it from my memory - but in itself this is not at all bad, just average.
