KnutAlbert (2313), Oslo, Norway Jul 3, 2008 Lovely reddish hazy beer with a fine fluffy head.
A bit sweet, fruity, dry finish, lots of aromatic hops packed in.
Easy drinking, yet with a nice nutty flavour. Good beer!

Pours muddy, dark amber with a big, lightly creamy, white head. Aroma is malty, good caramel, weak grass and hay. Medium carbonation, great creaminess. Flavour is marred by the tiniest amount of cardboard, otherwise, it’s great. Caramel backbone with super dry hoppiness, grass and light fruitiness. Ends with a long, lingering caramel note. Good.
