Bottled:
Reddish brown with a dense head. Malt and marshmallow aroma . Sweet and malty flavour with notes of toffee and chocolate. The hops show up late and brings a slight roastiness as companion. Very Jämtland.

Aug 24, 2008 Bottled (thanks omhper!). Amber colour, small beige head. Aroma is caramel, hops, grass and some slight spicyness. Flavour is grass, hops and some herbs. Rather grassy and dry.

Jul 18, 2008 (Bottle) Reddish brown colour with frothy, lasting, beige head. Hoppy, malty nose with notes of orange, caramel, toffee, chocolate and citrussy hops. Malty taste with orange, grapefruit, caramel, milky chocolate, wild berries (cowberries, raspberries?), hazel nuts and lots of citrussy hops in the finish. Slightly above medium body. Sweetish malt. Complex stuff with lovely balance. Great stuff.

Jul 14, 2008 Pours orange brown with a 2 cm tan head.
Aroma is a touch of roasted malt, red licorice, molasses, grass.
Mouthfeel is smooth and has medium-high carbonation.
Taste is bready malt, a bit of coffee, with a nice bitter finish. It’s a bit metallic and musty.
A pretty average beer.

Jul 4, 2008 courtesy of Per - pours a clear dark amber colour under a little beige foam; decent hoppy nose with notes of citrus, nut and caramel; slightly earthy; a moderate initial sweetness, very malty and tasty, some astringence, a fair bitterness leads to a long malty caramelish and gently spicy finish - a solid beer

Jun 16, 2008 50 cl botte - Thick amber colored beer with a small dark head. Aroma is dominated by english malts with some dried grass. Flavor rests heavily on caramel with some hops. Not as good as the X-mas sort. A bit disappointing really.
