Aass Bayer

Brewed by Aass Bryggeri
Style: Dunkel
Drammen, Norway

My norwegian favourite. Malty and round, great colour, and a taste which goes well with food. Must be served quite cold, in my opinion.

Good malty flavor, reminds me of a Belgian Bock. Nice strong finish.

Bitterhop and burned colormalt, slight soapyness though. Dark chestnut brown, ok head. Chokolaty and burned tastenotes. I like the agressive bittering hops that go with it. Nic bubbly mouthfeel and a bitter and burned aftertaste. Thanks Sigmund!

Beautiful ruby colour. Rich head, good lacing; looks great! Malty aroma. Wellbalanced roastiness. Very drinkable.

Apearance: clear and light caramelly brown in color, with a head puffy, well-retained, off-whitish. Aroma: soft and light, but full of spice and fruit, as well. Sweet and tasty,well-rounded, for nothing dominates here, not much. Malt may be on top, but does not assert itself too much, and hops are non-existent. Medium-body, medium-length, nutty finish. Very good texture, plays in the mouth quite well, and the flavor gives off more caramel essence towards the rear. A very, very good dark lager. Not the best, but not far away from it, either.

Bottle , tested 4/6-05. Dark red body, with a nice big foam.Aroma of sweet maltynes and coffee.Medim body with a medium nice bitter finish. This beer is best on cask.

Bottle. Clear reddish-brown color. Small off-white head. Sweet caramel and coffee/mocca aroma. Flavor is toasted malts and caramel. Light hopped and medium bodied. Smooth mouthfeel. Aass have made this Münchener for nearly 150 years now... and the 2006 version is probably the most drinkable Norwegian-brewed "Bayer" at the moment.

Brown colour with a small beige head. Aroma of malt and caramel with notes of hops. Nice flavour with notes of caramel and coffee and a bit bitterness. Nice and very drinkable beer.
