Dark amber, very lager-like in its simplicity; more of those caramelly vienna malts this brewery loves. Overall bland and uninteresting.

UPDATED: FEB 8, 2012 Backlog. Bottle. Amber colour with a tan head. Caramel nose. Moderate sweet caramel flavour.

Maybe I’m just excited by the fact that an ALE actually is brewed by a Norwegian macro brewery (WOW!) - but I do find this one quite drinkable. Moderate head, malty aroma, nutty flavour, sweetish aftertaste. Not outstanding, but a good try!

Amber coloured. Sweetish, a little bit malty. One dimensional. A little reminding of Newcastle Brown Ale.

After a good aroma there’s nothing to cheer about. Would have been much better with 1 r 2 extra %.
