Dark copper body with an off white fluffy head. Looks quite nice. Aroma of metallic hops, caramel, bread and a touch of raisins. This Grans is better than the other products from this brewery, but it still has the same metallic aroma which I really don’t care for.

2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 Palme (1437) - Bergen, NORWAY - NOV 9, 2011
0.33l bottle. This one pours a dark dark brown body with a nice big and kinda fluffy beige head. The aroma has tones of cold coffee, dark malts, some herbal touches and cardboard hints. Average carbonated with a weak and light watery mouthfeel. Flavors are actually not as horrible as Grans usually is. It’s dark malty with dark caramel and some light metallic hops and hints of butter towards the finish. Actually not to bad this time Grans.

Pours dark brown. About an inch of tan head, which quickly disappears. Some slightly roasted malt aroma. Watery feel. Taste of fruit. Not to bad, but needs some more body (4,5% isn’t helping, but that’s the law in Norway for you...)
