[1] Review by Sigmund from Hafrsfjord, Norway who has tried this beer once. (6/15/2007 3:17:38 PM)
"500 ml brown silk print bottle, courtesy of Cardinal pub, Stavanger. ABV is 6.5%. Also available in Norway at Vinmonopolet. Beautiful copper colour, large tan head. Malty sweetish aroma, notes of caramel and bakery. Malty sweet flavour, loads of caramel, sweeter than I appreciate. Very moderate hops in the finish. "

[2] Review by biegaman from Toronto, Canada who has tried this beer once. (7/2/2006 6:41:09 PM)
"A great appearence, decent head. Semi - transparent in a deep, ruby amber shade. Wicked looking bottle, with silk screened graphic and inticing write up. A solid, matly aroma. Taste doesn't indicate alcohol. Strong amber and crystal malt. This is like a DoppleBock meets Amber Ale (which, I think was the brewer's intentions, so good). It certainly works! Lots of caramel malt to round out the edges. No bad aftertaste. Tasty, light bodied. Great drinking bock, would certainly serve as a good 'cross-over' beer. This is almost as nice as its dopplebock counterpart of a similar name. Somewhat limited, but well achieved and well rounded. Quite good ! "
