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.

Bottle. Low and fluffy of-white head. Clear cobber body. Fruity aroma with caramel and hops aroma. Dry barley malt flavor with a fair amount of hops bitterness. Pretty spicy. Low carbonation and a pleasant dry and long bitter aftertaste.

Bottle. Dark amber color with a fading head. Mild bitter and hoppy aroma. A light flavor of a good mixture between hops and malt, bitter character. Something malty in the finish but it doesn’t leave a long taste on the palate. I say it’s very close to the same brewers India Ale, despite being a different type of beer.

Coppery color, mild nose. Roasted, surprisingly bitter and dry. Caramel and syrup, altho roastiness and bitterness are the main characters here. No aftertaste. Quite good.

Bottle. Bought @ Kvickly, Svendborg. Let us see if Nils Oscar disappoints me again :o) Pours a clear redish brown with an almost non-existent head. Aroma is quite fruity, some strawberries, caramel and a little cardboard feel to it. Mouthfeel is light. Flavour is sweet at first, with the same fruity caramel. The cardboard appears slightly again. Extremely dry at the back - not exactly from hops directly, I feel... can’t really explain it. But yes, it’s a good Vienna, but perhaps not a 98 percentile...

Bottle. Nice red brown body. Small head. Light fruity and sweet aroma. Sweet flavour with hints of fruit. Sweet finish, with hints of coffee. (Kløyvika, 01.08.07)

Light roastiness in aroma along with some hops and a touch of nuttiness. A bit sweet, the roasty malts give way to nice minty hops. A pleasant surprice as Nils Oscar had a string of disappointments with me.
