Bottle from trade with yngwie. The beer was clear brown with some eggshell color foam. In the aroma and flavor I got caramel and roasted malt. It was sweeter, spicer, and slightly more alcholic than the Juleøl klasse D. Slightly bitter finish.

Thanks to Akevitt for the tasting. Malty caramel aroma with some dark fruits. Smoother than the last one. Light malty body with a metallic aftertaste.

Bottle@Home. Sweet caramel malts, bit like hop pallets as well. Redish brown, beige head, good lace. Sweet, caramel, light malty, light bitter to bitter in the finish, hints of licorice and herbs. Full and very soft with a sparkling finish. Thanks Yngwie.

Tasted 28. Nov -07. Toasted malt and a bit sweet aroma, thought it smelt yeasty at first. The first flavour I tasted was the malty aftertaste, I had to take a few more sips to detect some of the roast and caramel notes. After I had tasted it i could also find some caramel in the flavor. A god straightforward christmas beer .

33 cl bottle. 6,5% ABV. Dark brown/reddish color. Big. lasting tan head. Dark malt, dark fruit, caramell, fine bitterness. One of the best Norwegian x-mas beers (Nøgne Ø is off course better).

Beautiful red-brown color and a creamy head. The aroma is rather weak, but it does have notes of roasted malt and caramel. The flavour is quite sweet and has notes of roasted malt, caramel and a light bitterness, that develops and ends quite dry in the end. 2246
