Dec 4, 2004 Jämtlands remains one of the best breweries in Sweden and this remains one of their finest. Unfortunately most pubs, even in Jämtland (the region of origin) itself seem to no longer have it on tap and only on bottle. This beer has lots of taste of hops and the colour is none other than bärnsten (amber).

Apr 12, 2006 (Draught at MacKinlay’s, Stockholm) Colour is pale amber (no surprise, the word bärnsten actually means amber), with foamy head. Nose is fruity, hoppy with citrus and some roasted notes. Taste is hoppy with citrus, caramel and hints of toffee and nuts. This is a very nice beer, but I do think it was even better (and somewhat more hoppy) before. Very good balance between the fruit, hops and the roasted malt.

Sep 30, 2002 Besides the slightly burnt malt character, all you can taste is the hops. Citrusy piney hops. Very hoppy. Bittersweet. Doesn’t really taste like a Pilsener, more like an IPA or bitter or something. Very tasty anyway, bitter hoppy finish, i love it, Jamtlands is one of my favourite brewers. Thanks Per!!!

Jan 4, 2003 Amber coloured. Offwhite lasting head. Has a malt chocolate aroma. The flavour is hoppy as hell. Dominates all other flavours but still its very pleasant. Is very bitter in the aftertaste in a good way. Definately a very good pilsener. Outranks most scandinavian pilseners i’ve tasted.
