Odd smell of canned caviar. Soft malty flavour with a hint of liquorice. Not a bad session.

Bottle bought in Reykjavik in March 2011. Clear dark amber with a small head. Sweet aroma and taste with malt, caramel and some very light notes of hops. Quite thin mouth feel. A drinkable beer but not that funny.

Bottle in Reykjavik. Malty beer, chocolate, cocoa, yet some fine hoppy dryness that makes this fairly balanced. Nice stuff.

Bottle. [thanks mum, dad & Bigbro]
Pours deep, clear darkish amber with a small, staying, creamy, off-white head. Aroma has caramel, sweet light resiny hops, some crispness, light berries. Spritzy carbonation, a bit thin. Flavour is quite fruity, almost bordering on infected. But it isn’t. Caramel, sweetness and very light hops.

a much nicer product than the original Jökull and much more like the style they are trying to reproduce. Nice caramelt malts, floral notes and tingling bitterness. Overall inoffensive and fine, but nothing outstanding
