(Bottle 35,5 cl) On the label credited to Shipyard Brewing Company. Pours a pretty, clear warm reddish brown with a creamy, beige head. Sweetish roasted malt aroma with some nuts. Medium body with very sweet roasted malt, nuts and fruit. Very smooth mouthfeel and a very subdued bitterness. But highly drinkable. 210908

Bottled at Bishop’s Arms Vasagatan, Stockholm. Dark brown, airy head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee and molasses. Sweet and papery, gassy and light bodied. Dominated by molasses and cardboard with notes of cocoa powder. Simplistic, sketchy malt character. Finishes lifeless with medium bitterness. If you do a subtle beer you better do it well, as there is nowhere to hide your flaws...

The second bottle of this wasn’t soured, much better brown ale. Malty caramel earthy hops towards the finish that compliment the malts nicely. Same thing as previous poster, BOM club. What I was expecting from this was way off, maybe a malty brown? noooo... something got all infected in this, turned out like a sour brown. I still have a few more to try, so I’ll see if they are all like this or just one. Strangly although it wasn’t that great, it still wasn’t the worst thing ever, I still drank most of it.
