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.

Well stored bottle tasted June 2025. Pitch black body under a dense beige head. Nice aroma of dark, roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, wood, some Bourbon, vanilla and dry fruit. Taste is medium sweet smooth, strong dark roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee, dry fruit, Bourbon, wood, vanilla and balanced bitterness. Full bodied with a long, long lasting, warming aftertaste. So nice and so smooth. Delicious.

Backlog October 2013. Unclear orange body under a nice off-white head. Interesting, rather spicy aroma, malt, herbs, spices, licorice and pepper. Taste is sweet malt with the same spicy, herbs and slightly fruity taste. Medium body and pleasant aftertaste. Fun, different and a bit challenging but all over I like it.

Backlog October 2013. Clear, deep amber body under a moderate sized off-white head. Aroma has a hint anise and unfortunately quite district wet cardboard. Taste is sweet malt with licorice and diastyle. Medium body and same faulty aftertaste. Still drinkable but even overlocking the fault it’s still not a very exiting beer.

Backlog October 2013. Unclear golden orange body under a big, white head. Aroma is fruity with hint of lemon, slightly funky and all over very refreshing. Taste deliver in accordance with expectations from aroma, light and refreshing with some fruity complexity, mild acidity, slightly funky and balanced bitterness. Balanced body with the same refreshing aftertaste. A really nice Saison.

Tap @ Qvarteret. Unclear orange golden body under a medium sized white head. Strong aroma of malt, citric fruit, oranges and fruity yeast. Taste is balanced sweet with really soft malt, concentrated on citric fruits, ripe fruit, oranges, some yeast and balanced bitterness. Alcohol is well integrated and slightly warming. Fine balanced body with long lasting, smooth aftertaste. A really nice one this.

Bottle @ home. Slightly unclear reddish amber body under a small, lacing beige head. Aroma has malt, oak, red berries, some dry fruit and red wine. Taste has sweet malt in fine combination with acidic red berries, oak, hint of caramel, more acid and vinous. Balanced body, nice fruit and acid with a slight bitter finish. Nice and pleasant with complexity.

Can @ home. Slightly unclear pale golden body under a white head. Refreshing hop aroma and the first sips feels nice as well. Further down the glass thew beer feels a bit boring, most of the impression from this beer is just the aroma. Not much body and not much taste either. Smells god, but it’s a bit much for me to drink the whole can by myself. Nothing going on really after the first two sips.
