Bottle. Pours deep brown with a dense, brownish head. Nice malty and sweetish aroma with slight smoked notes. Creamy notes appears as it warms. Flavour is equally malty and sweetish with smoked notes and an inoffensive, but wellbalanced, bitterness. Slight grassy notes in the finish. Nice palate - feels creamy. Not a very complex beer, but it’s nice to drink. 08-11-05.

Rating #1000. 50 cl bottle courtesy fonefan, best before 13.07.07. First off, why a simple Christmas Brown Ale that isn’t highly rated for 1000? My ratebeer journey began 5 and a half years ago while searching for info on Norwegian Juleol. I have yet to track down on e of those, but Jan was kind enough to track this one down for me well past the Christmas season. So Scandinavian Christmas beer will suffice.

Dark mahogany colour with a fully lasting creamy and and frothy off-white head. Caramel, bread, light citrus fruit, and light cinnamon aroma. Light caramel, dark rye bread, caraway, and persimmon flavours with a dry, dark chocoalte, fruity, and nutty bitter and light alcohol finish. As it warms, develops some banana bread character. Full bodied, rich mouthfeel. Like an overspiced dark fruit cake soaked in a bit too much rum. Not exactly to my personal tastes, but a contemplative and interesting beer. And for this milestone, I’m happy with my choice.

Pours dark cobber with a small tanned head. Smells malty. Medium sweetness. Quite malty (darks). Hints of sweet liquirish. Nice mellow carbonation. Medium bodied. Nice hoppy (dry) finish.

bread, roasty, alcohol, smoke, red, brown, clear, minimal head, medium sweetness, medium bitterness, lightly sour, medium body, slick feel, soft carbonation, bitter, Meget mørkerød, klar. Vedvarende tyndt lag skum. Dufter tydeligt af ristet malt. Kraftig, men afrundet, karameliseret maltsmag. Umiddelbart meget lidt aromahumlet. Eftersmagens bitterhed er tydelig.Smager af julebryg, men bedre mundfylde og afrundet smag og tilpas co2. Virker god til julefrokostbordet.
