zach8270 (2075), Henrietta, New York, USA Nov 18, 2009 (bottle - 330 ml) Copper pour with a thin white head and lots of carbonation. Aroma is very malty and sweet with a lot of caramel notes. Flavor is similar. Smooth and sweet at the beginning with a mildly roasted malt middle. Some light bitterness and roasted caramel malts at the end. Light body and light aftertaste. dnoaksson (165), , Sweden Nov 14, 2009 Som alltid med Nils Oscar, en öl som genomsyras av kvalitet. Ett hantverk som arbetats fram med stor kärlek, omsorg och sinne för detaljer. dcschiller (20), Arizona, USA Nov 3, 2009 (bottle) Orange color with some sediment. Burnt-caramel maltiness with subtle hoppiness underneath. Chewy mouthfeel. I did not have high expectations for this beer, but that was a mistake. It’s a nice, solid beer. I would classify this as a ’table’ beer b/c of it’s relatively low alcohol content. However, it has the flavor of a higher-alcohol beer. bergstaden (101), Røros, Norway Oct 10, 2009 Ambet with white head - strong malty taste, hints of caramelsome roasted notes - distinct hoppy flavor - very nice and drinkable Arayaga2 (945), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 29, 2009 Hazy brown with a white head. Aroma is caramel and DMS. It tastes as it smells with a mildly sour, grainy finish. $2/11.2oz drpimento (808), La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA Sep 12, 2009 Got this bottle a few months ago at Sam’s in Chicago; hasn’t been kept chilled. And perhaps it should have been. Think it’s gone bad as it has some definite sourness. Poured with a tan head that quickly subsided and no lace. Aroma is just plain malty beer. Color isn’t that great - hazy medium to dark amber. Flavor is like aroma but yeasty bitter plus the sour. Body is ok and so is carbonation. Can’t finish it tho. Indra (2024), Prairie Village, Kansas, USA Sep 9, 2009 330ml bottle. Bready, lightly sweet, caramel aroma, very lightly fruity and spicy. Cloudy medium-dark red-orange color, head is fine and lasting. Flavor profile is nicely balanced between the caramel and sugary malt sweetness, background dried fruitiness, lightly spicy, herbal hop and moderate bitterness. Lingering caramel malt flavors late. Smoothly effervescent and thin on the palate with a light-medium body. Quite drinkable and a very good example of the style. thedm (3834), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA Sep 5, 2009 This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a medium sized head of foamy fine to medium sized bubbles that were and left behind a transparent softly carbonated golden and thick foamy lacing. The aroma was malty and bready. The crisp mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start and at the finish hoppy aftertaste. The flavor contained notes of hops.
