Brewed by Grebbestad Bryggeri
Style: Vienna
Grebbestad, Sweden

Biggish offwhite head. Deep red-brown body with carbonation. Rubbery cardboard aroma. Dry roasty cardboard malt taste with rubbery notes. Grainy aftertaste. Conclusion: don’t rate this after lots of extreme beers. Need to rerate. (0.5l bottle at Ole_R’s.)

50 cl bottle, bougth in Strømstad. Shared with Roger during the Liverpool - Arsenal game yesterday. Very dark brown color, lovely beige head. Aroma is sweet roasted malt and fruit. Flavor is roasted malt, hints of smoked malt and some fruity sweetness.

Bottled. Reddish brown coloured. Unpleasant aroma of prunes and dust. Very sweet and old flavour of prunes and raisins.

Sour nose. Pale brown, creamy head. Sour roast flavors. Lightbodied but sporting a oily mouthfeel somehow.

A deep red beer with a small beige head. The aroma is sweet malty. The flavor is sweet malty with the addition of notes of roasted bread and caramel, before a dry end sets in.

Bottled: Burgundy coloured. Light brown head. Malt aroma with notes of cocoa and fruit. Flavour is light hopped and malty. Fruitnotes again. Light bitte in the end.

Amber, with a nice brownish head. Malty aroma that brings chocolate and cocoa. Malty flavor from toffee and chocolate. Bitter finish, but a little watery.

Here is something above the ordinary easter brews. A brown tinted head covering a whole palette of flavors, all from hops and malt to resin and sugar. The aroma is deep and lasting with a long good after taste. Doesn't fit all foods, but goes well with the little fattier ones, not really an easter beer, but to good to criticise for a detail like that...
