For me one proper and honest beer review is more worth than 100 ticks without any relevant content. It’s all about respect for the beer and the craftmanship behind. I will always try to do my best for a proper rating than playing the number game.

Can @ home. Unclar golden body under a nice, foamy white head. Aroma and taste like a fine, classic old school IPA. Sweet malt, some dry fruit and dominating piny hops. Balanced bitterness, balanced body and pleasant aftertaste. A really nice, straight forward, well made IPA.

Backlog May 2014. Unclear reddish amber body under a big, lacing, creamy off-white head. Mild, slightly acidic aroma with malt and Brett. Taste has malt with a sweet and acidic fruitiness, relatively bitter as well. Balanced body but otherwise it’s a bit messy, still drinkable

Tap @ Qvarteret. Pitch black body under a small, short living beige head. Aroma has very light roasted dark malt, dark chocolate and hint of coffee with almost no alcohol. Taste is super smooth, sweet, dark malt, dark chocolate with no bitterness and a touch of coffee. The alcohol is just contributing with a warming feeling at the finish. It reminds me of Kahlua, but the beer flavours are still present. Well-made, balanced and true to the origin. This is the kind of pastry ‘’stout’’ that I can relate to - rather clean without all these nonsense as maple syrup, nut cream, caramel essence etc.

Can @ home. Dark amber/brown body under a short lived beige head. Aroma of malt, caramel and dry fruit. Taste is quite sweet but not sticky, malt, caramel and dry fruit and gentle alcohol. Fine body with long lasting aftertaste. This one felt a bit rough at the first sips, but went quite nice after a few more, very nice aqtually.
