Bottle from Maria, thanks! Brown color. Toffeearoma with a hint of cinnamon. Sweet toffeeflavor with peach and caramel. Medium bodied. Sticky mouthfeel.

nice. good. compared to the fur lager, this one has a little more taste. So - quite a good attempt at this kind of beer. Also looks good after being poured. A very slight taste of something sweet/sour disturbs the overall taste, but it is so subtle that i can’t taste it after a quarter of a glass. With that disturbance out of the way, i must admit this is a good one. Not excellent, but well crafted. A pity they don’t describe the beer on the label, if it’s a joke i don’t get it;-)

50 cL bottle. Pours deep orange to brown with a diminished off-white head. Malty aroma with a mild caramel and breadish note. Flavour is medium sweet, solid caramel note and a heavy breadish and roasted note. Finish holds a solid bitterness and a nicely roasted caramel malt flavour. Slight metallic edge too.

Nut brown colour with medium head.Taste of malt and caramel,feels smoked and tosted,with mild finish.
