Commercial Description:
This beer has its orgin in the Bavarian beer type ’festbier’ or ’oktoberfestbier’. Like ’festbier’ and ’vienna style beer’, Nils Oscar Kalasöl is of a somewhat darker type. The Nils Oscar Kalasöl is produced with both münchenermalt, dark caramelmalt, chocolatmalt and some roasted barley. The choice of hops is a mix of four kinds where the most characteristic are brittish fuggles, american cascade and czech saaz.
Kalasöl is a rounded beer with a mildly roasted breadish character. It can be recommended together with heavy foods, like joints of roast meat, spicy stews, broiled meat and fowl.

Warm caramel malt aroma. Amber color with an ephemeral white head. Medium in body with mild carbonation. The flavor is roasted caramel with spicey hop. Something like an ESB, actually. The finish is well balanced with a decent amount of bitter. It’s a very tasty drink.

Bottle. Light amber colour with mostly diminishing off-white head. Malt, hops and some corn in the aroma. Flavor add green hops and a hint of caramel. Average finish - primarily hoppy. Well made Vienna.

Deep amber with rust red hues, sparse microscopic carbonation holds up a wispy, bubble-clustered off-white head. the body is crystalline and sullen. The nose is a rolling stew of caramelized breadcrumbs and grains with soft sugars and air-dried apples. Awkward tropical fruit esters are noteworthy. Breadiness is rustic and encompasses all other nuances in a rigid coccoon. The flavor is moderately bitter and lightly astringent, the grassy hops playing a pleasant role of spicing and livening things up a good deal. Sweetness is medium and thoroughly enjoyable, even as it gains momentum into the grassy, mildly bitter and toasty finish. The mouthfeel is lightly and evenly carbonated, very lightly sticky and prickly and is very easy to drink. A very good interpretation of a style that is very difficult to create a memorable version of.

Pours a pure, copper color. Very little head. Aroma is delicate, but vibrant. Very malty and grainy, with a hint of spiciness, I am guessing that is from the rye. Slight hop component on the finish. Immenently drinkable.

Bottle, a few months past expiry date. Pours dark copper colour with no head to speak of. Pleasant aroma and taste with a slight metallic twang, though.

An interesting brew. Mild and malty with a special hoppiness. Some roasted notes as well .
