Jun 9, 2008 Can. Small but lasting off-white head. Clear good looking amber body. Caramel hops weak aroma. Sweet caramel hops flavor that dies quickly Aftertaste is long sweet and caramel dominated. Generally speaking the beer is however and unfortunately a bit watery.

Jan 25, 2008 50 cl can. Clear amber color. Whithe head. Aroma is sweet malt. Flavor is malty with caramel sweetness. Some floral notes. Very moderate bitterness. Not bad, just very boring.

Oct 19, 2007 (Can 50 cl) Courtesy of yngwie. Pours a clear, deep golden with an off-white head. Light aroma of roasted malt and overripr fruit. Medium body with lightly sweet malts and a fruity touch. The finish is dry. I would’ve expected a beer for the dark season ("Mørketid") to be darker and fuller. 191007

Mar 15, 2007 500 ml can, bought at Vaaland Spesialbutikken, Bryne. Golden colour, decent head. ABV is 4.7%. Over-boiled maize and vegetables in the aroma, a little caramel too. Thin and fizzy mouthfeel. Boring flavour - a little caramel, minimal hops. Yawn ... zzzzzz.

Dec 31, 2006 Can, courtesy of Rune. Thanks. It serves clear, golden, with a small off-white head. Malt, caramel and fruits in both aroma and flavor, with more caramel in the flavor. Some hops in the finish. A bit thin mouthfeel, with some fizzyness. Certainly better than the avarage Norwegian pils, but on the other hand, it is not a pilsner... (061126)
