Commercial Description:

33cl bottle@ Rotterdam, Helsinki. Pours chestnut color as it says on the bottle, with a nice beige head. Mild hop aroma, toffee and malt flavor. Very easy to drink.

Ruby brown, filtered. Nice head, small bubbles. Rich malty aroma, some complexity. Some licorice. Too much alcohol . Too thin bodied. Nice beer. Purchased in SuperBrugsen.

Sample at "strong beers and sweet cakes" - matched with a cranberry muffin. Clear copper color with a small off white head. Grain and dark bread in the aroma along with some light toasted notes. Light caramel sweetness and a light roasted bitterness. The bread is even more noticeable in the moutharoma.

Bottle. Chestnut? OK. The aroma is nice fruity but has a little something pointy to it too much brown sugar. The taste is watery more brown sugar and a bad aftertaste something astringent. Won’t buy again but a good try.

Nice looking bottle. I’d not been aware of this brand until stumbling across it in my local BCLDB store. Poured a smallish tan head to cap an attractive clear and dark copper body. Aroma was indistinct, but quite alright. Taste was pleasant, with some malts, and the mouth was comfortable. Nice beer; I could drink more of these.

Bottle. This beer is dark amber in the glass with a thin off white head. There is a small bit of carbonation streaming to the surface. The aroma is full of caramel in the malt with some light hints of leafy hops, grass and brown bread. The mouthfeel is a bit thin and watery. I taste brown bread with mild hops in the background, caramel, some honey, water.

Bottle. Pours an amber body with a tan head. Sweet caramel and lagered notes with a grainy body and some light paper notes. A hint of sugar and some toasted malt.
