Bottle from Gulating, Brennåsen. Unclear pale golden with a big but fast dispersing white head. Aroma is floral, hay, slightly acidic tea and hint of lemon. Complex but a bit weird. Flavor is really refreshing, mild fruit, quite acidic, flowers, bitter tea and minerals. Light bodied and refreshing acidic aftertaste. Original and very refreshing, not extremely nice but definitively something I could have again.

Bottle @ Patricks. Chrystal clear deep amber golden body with a nice, medium sized, dense off-white head. Really beautiful looking. Aroma has a really strong scent of caramel, candy sugar, rye bread and dry fruit with hint of warming alcohol. Flavor is really sweet caramel malt, dry fruit, candy sugar, low bitterness and vinous alcohol. Nice body and long lasting, pretty sweet aftertaste. Basically way too sweet like many Belgium beers in this style, but somehow they seems to make some kind of balance when drinking (and not just tasting) this beers. This is party valid for this beer as well, too sweet but starting to enjoy it getting closer to the bottom of the bottle – still a bit too sweet and to much caramel.

Tap @ Cafe Sara. Clear dark amber body without any head, it still looks amazing, almost a bit oily. Strong and delicious an aroma, lots of mark malt and dry fruit with smooth alcoholic whisky. Flavor is sweet dark malt, dry fruit, some wood, whisky and nice warming alcohol. Fine body and long lasting aftertaste. Solid, pure joy, whar a great sipper.

Bottle. Slightly unclear golden body with a decent, lacing white head. Aroma has pale malt, fruity hops, peaches and a hint of honey. Flavor is sweet, malty with some of this kind of harsh sweetness that fermented honey can give, fruity en general and decent bitterness. Medium body and average, sweet and bitter aftertaste – perhaps a bit on the sweeter side. Decent.
