500ml bottle brought from Vinmonopolet Langnes by Rune. Nice bottle, Dark rosewood coloured body, with brown filmy layer on top. Roasted almonds, licorice, burnt malt and hint of clove in the aroma. Sweet, then I just felt nauseated and disgusted by the taste of pulp and sour malt. It’s best described like having an acid reflux that leaves the taste of your last meal in your mouth aka "mini sick" (Rating Session 3.Jan.2012)

On bottle from vinmonopolet Straen. Not a fantastic beer but better than expected from Grans brewery. Still a little bit to sticky sweet for me. Kind of watery and overall quite matly sour. Naah

500 ml bottle from Vinmonopolet Langnes kindly shared by Rune at Beer session XVIII in Tromsø 030112. Boring bottle and label design typical of Lade Gaards Brygghus. Dark brown/mahogany body with a small brown-beige head. Aroma of burnt malts and almonds, sweet liqourice and chocolate. Flavour initially attempts to trick you with crude sweetness, but soon turns the wrong way with sour malts and shades of acid reflux. A perfectly good way to ruin a Christmas dinner.

Bottle. Dark red brown colour with a beige head. Aroma is butterscotsch, sourness, dried fruits. flavour is sourness, fruit, butterscotsch, alcohol, dried fruits. Very strange beer.

Flavour is moderate to light light heavy sweet and moderate bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20120218]

500 ml bottle. Clear, dark amber body with a nice, dence beige head. Aroma is caramel and fruit with quite a lot of acidity. Flavor is dominated by some kind of fruity acidity, feels almost like something between oude brune and lambic, but not in a pleasant way. Definitively infected and just partly drinkable, still quite interesting in a weired way. Must be re-rated if possible.

Bottle, 6.5%. Fruity and farty malt aroma. Dark brown colour. Small light brown head. The flavour is also sweet and malty, not so farty, but a little brown sugar. Does not taste like Bock, but it is so yeasty that I think it is more like a Belgian Dubbel.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma is toasted dark malt and breadish. Dry breadish and roasted malt flavoured. Mild acidic and dark breadish. Dark malty and roasted finish.

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of yngwie. Pours a clear reddish brown with a beige head. Solid body, burned caramel, lots of pumpernickel. Sweet caramel aroma with a tart whiff. 180212
