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.

Backlog September 2011. Almost clear, deep golden body under an off-white head. Aroma of dry fruits, caramel and hint od alcohol. Taste is sweet malt, dry fruit and smooth alcohol. Fine body with a pleasant aftertaste. Nice and smooth without anything extraordinary really.

Backlog September 2011. Slightly unclear amber body under a fine, dense beige head. Aroma has malt, brown sugar, caramel and spicy notes. Taste is sweet with a pleasant malt flavor, some caramel, spicy, dry fruit and modest bitterness. Medium body with an average aftertaste. Quite nice, well made and smooth without any wow factor.

Can from Gulating. Unclear orange golden body under a fine, lacing, dense white head. Aroma has malt, some toffee, some fry fruit and quite yeasty. Taste is medium sweet malt, quite much fruity yeast, low bitterness and an acidic touch. Balanced body with the same aftertastes. Decent but more like a traditional beer showcasing the yeast than something fresh and nice.

Tap @ Brygghuset. Thick bodied yellow orange body with fruit sediments and no head. Aroma and taste like a smoothie, banana is dominating. A bit spicy and balancing acidity. Aroma and taste is practically just a smoothie, like it or not is not important, the beer itself has no impact of the flavor, could as well be replaced with lemon juice. Just a novelty beer for me.

Tap @ Qvarteret. Slightly unclear dark golden body under a medium sized white head. Mild malty aroma. Taste is sweet malt, wort, bread, hint off toffee and low bitterness. Medium body with same aftertaste. Drinkable but slightly boring, not much going on here.
