Maria (4321), Thisted, Denmark Oct 5, 2008 EBF2008. As Kimitoöns Vikinga Mørktøl III. Thanks to?? It’s dark, red-brown and the aroma has notes of caramel, candy sugar, butterscotch and biscuits. The flavour has sweetness and a light sourness and notes of caramel, candy sugar, toffee and a little butter. I think an infection is developing, but otherwise it’s OK. Rune (1804), Tromsø, Norway Oct 2, 2008 Sampled from a bottle at the rating table in the food tent at EBF 08 – thanks to oh6gdx for providing the bottle. Clear amber coloured body. Weak smell of sweet malts. A bit strange taste of sour grass and a slight note of vinegar. Some bitterness comes through in the ending (13.09.2008).
Ole_R (1279), Oslo, Norway Sep 29, 2008 Sampled from a bottle@EBF 2008 as Kimitoöns Vikinga Mörkt III Öl. Pale amber, minimal offwhite head. Acidic-sweet fruitiness and butterscotch to the nose. Acidulous malt taste. Some fruit notes. Dry powdery mouthfeel. Skinny body. Acidulous finish. Strange brew. Fin (2344), Merton, Oxfordshire, England Sep 29, 2008 Had this at European Beer Festival, Kobenhaven Denmark. I think I’ve got the right beer? I had this down as Kimitoon Vikinga Pours very clean amber, soft malty aroma. Simple easy swigging beer, a tiny sour tinge on the end its ok. Ethereal (927), London, Greater London, England Sep 24, 2008 Sample from bottle as Kimitoöns Vikinga Nr III Öl at EBF 2008. Nose was caramel with a butterscotch hint on top. Mid brown colour. Not very flavoursome and rather slick, this was almost certainly infected.
