Small white head. Hazy amber body with light carbonation. Rock candy and anise aroma with strawberry notes. Very unusual. Dry spicy wooden sorbet taste with grainy grape notes. Light body. Dusty faintly abrasive mouthfeel. Dry herbal spicy aftertaste with wooden mineraly notes. Not bad, but weird and not terribly drinkable. (0.33l bottle at Olympen, Oslo.)

A bottle at Bishp Arms, Skövde. Golden amber beer . Caramell and malty aroma with some yeast notes. Malty flavour with some hoppy notes. Nice fresh beer.

Man vill ju så innerligt tycka att det här ölet är exceptionellt, men för det krävs antagligen lobotomi och/eller ett omdöme i det sista stadiet av förruttnelse. Nej, Hantverksbryggeriet är och förbli lite sämre än vad de borde vara, fångna i en underlig underprestation. Dags att bryta mönstret.

33cl bottle. Pours hazy cooper. Smells caramell malty. Tastes watery, malty with a clear bitter finish.
