500 ml bottle. Thanx to Yngwie and everyone else involved in bringing this rare beer to my home. Almost clear reddish orange body with a disappearing off-white head. Aroma of caramel and some butterscotch. Flavor is refreshing malty, bitter with some caramel. Relatively sweet and with something giving me a little association of forest. Promising but not quite successful.

Bottle. Copper colour with an off-white head. Aroma is fruit, caramel, malt. Flavour is sweet, fruit, caramel, malt, wood. Interesting beer, but a little bit ordinary.

Bottle. A slightly unclear pour, copper color, and a lovely creamy off-white head. The initial aroma has some cooked vegetables, then some butterscotch arrives, before caramel and a touch of forest takes over the show. Sweet flavor with some notes of forest and a little butterscotch and cooked vegetables in the background. Medium body and a short finish. The beer is a bit boring, but nice and strange in a way. The veggies and butterscotch pulls down the score slightly. (080620)

<i>Bottled. Thx Furseth.</i> Hazy amber with a small, white head. Light grassy, perfume-ish aroma. Malty, slightly nutty flavour. Pretty soft and sweet. Pleasant.
