Bottle from Vinmonopolet in Valkendorfsgate, Bergen. Deep coppery body, small off-white head. Aroma is deep tones of red berries, caramel, nuts and hints of water melon, almonds and jasmine. Nice. Taste is mellow caramel and nuts with red berries and melon in the back. Traces of honey. Pleasant. Smooth mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Very nice drinking beer, which values smoothness over excitement. It works, in this case.

Pretty average attempt with this first tasting from these guys. They at least try to go after the style. I can see some potential, but this over-gassed bock left me flat.

The aroma is papery with caramel and mixed grains. The hops are light but grassy. The appearance is hazy deep amber with a foamy head. The taste is like the aroma with a licorice/medicinal quality. The palate is average. Overall not that good but for some reason I want to drink it.
