500 ml bottle bought @ Systembolaget and consumed on December 13. Pours pale amber with a white head that leaves some lacing while dissipating. Smell is malty sweet with butterscotch, caramel, bread and some orange zest. Taste is slightly sweet and rather bitter with butterscotch, lemon zest, orange zest and some resin. Finish is rather dry and rather bitter with hints of bread. Quite drinkable.

A masterpiece, as usual, from Jämtland. Hops are dominant but there's a delicate flavor from wheat malt as well. Very rich and flavorful.

Maybe the last chance to drink this beer as it is rumored to be discontinued. Not confirmed, though. This is usually my favourite beer from this brewery. This glass, however, was probably old and maybe badly kept. A distict hay aroma and a whole lot of butterscotch in taste. Notes of cardboard indicating some oxidation and no aftertaste whatsoever. Quite disappointed and I’m confused wether I should rate this glass or the way it used to be... It has to be this one, I’m afraid... (Normaly this beer would probably end up with 4+) 4/4/4/3/8 2.3

We have normality! This beer will NOT be discontinued. A well balanced sweet maltiness is here with a distinctive bitterness and a flowery aroma and taste. Some toffe present. Nice and long aftertaste. Nothing wrong with this. Gimme another one!

ett mysterium att jag aldrig druckit Bärnsten lager när Hell är en favorit och Jämtlands klass är hög och jämn. Den känns väldigt engelskorienterad. Blommig, fruktig och lätt tvålig humle, medelsöt maltkropp med lite karamell, mandel, mineraler. Bra beska, bra balans. Skulle ta den för en bra engelsk pale ale vid blindtest . Riktigt god och då var min flaska ändå långt ifrån färsk.

Bottle. Pours clear amber colored with a small egg white head. Aromas of caramel and fruit. Slightly sour flavor with notes of grainy malt and citrus fruits.

Bottled. Pours hazy copper with a big white head. Smells bread malty and boiled vegetables. Tastes dry bitter malty with a similar finish.

UPDATED: FEB 11, 2004 Copper, amber beer (Bärnsten means amber in swedish).
Fresh malty aroma with citrusy tones, lots of hops. A hint of sourness and wet cardboard
Bitter and a bit buttery flavor with fruity tones and feeling of standing in the middle of a grain field. Big, dry bitter finish. This one is not Jämtlands top beer but shows what a high standard they have.
