  • Amundsen Eazy Peazy
    rated 3.2 6 months ago

    Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

    440 ml can, from Vaaland, Bryne. ABV is 0.5%. Hazy pale yellow colour, small white head. Aroma of pineapple and other tropical fruits, some citrus and spruce too. Light bodied as expected. Citric flavour, notes of tropical fruits too, hints of pine needles, dry finish, low bitterness. Definitely one of the better n/a beers I've had.

  • Churcheim Sigil Belgian IPA
    rated 3.6 6 months ago

    Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

    440 ml can, as Churcheim Sigil Belgian IPA, from Vaaland, Bryne. ABV is 4.7%. Slightly hazy and very pale straw colour, large white head. Moderate aroma of wheat, Belgian ale yeast, citrus and mild spices. Flavour with the same elements, nice enough and refreshing to drink, but in a blind test I would have guessed that this was a witbier or a Belgian blonde, not an IPA.

    December 2018: Shared 330 ml bottle, ABV 8%. Black colour, small beige head. Nice roasty aroma, notes of chocolate, vanilla, mild coffee and caramel. The flavour is not too sweet, with the same elements as the aroma. Good beer.

    440 ml can, batch #487, from Vaaland, Bryne. ABV is 4.5%. Slightly hazy reddish brown colour, moderate to small head, slightly off-white. Nice lacing. Aroma and flavour of malts with a hint of caramel, earthy and herbal hops. Medium dry, a hint of dark berries. Pleasant to drink.

    Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

    March 2015: Shared 375 ml green and corked & caged bottle at local tasting. Golden colour, moderate white head. Nice aroma of farmhouse kitchen and oaked cider, hints of dusty attic. Easy drinking, light bodied. Some fruitiness but not really sour, a mild spicy hint.

  • Ritter Kahlbutz Männerstolz
    rated 2.3 6 months ago

    Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 4 | Flavor: 4 | Overall: 4

    January 2016: Shared 500 ml bottle at local tasting, from Prima Beer. 6.8% ABV. Golden colour, white head. Malty and dusty aroma. Malty and dusty flavour too, a bit unfresh, moderate hops. Not great.

  • Ritter Kahlbutz Hopfenstange
    rated 2.9 6 months ago

    Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 6

    January 2016: Shared 500 ml bottle at local tasting, from Prima Beer. ABV is 4.9%. Golden colour, moderate white head. Moderate but nice aroma of herbal and grassy German hops. Fairly crisp and dry flavour, a typical German pils (no more, no less), reasonably bitter finish.

  • Poppels Pine India Pale Ale
    rated 3.6 6 months ago

    Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

    440 ml can, as Poppels Pine India Pale Ale, from Vinmonopolet Madla. ABV is 6.5%, IBU 50. Slightly hazy golden colour, moderate white head. Aroma of piney and citric hops. The flavour is slightly on the dry side, piney / resinous and grapefruity hops, bitter finish. A bit one-dimensional, maybe - but decent enough.

  • Disko Brutus Bayer
    rated 3.2 6 months ago

    Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

    October 2019: 330 ml can, as Disko Brutus Bayer, from Bris Ølutsalg, Jørpeland. ABV is 4.7%, IBU 25. Reddish brown colour, enormous beige head that lasts "forever", takes quite a while before I reach the beer underneath. Aroma of malts, brown bread and caramel. Malty flavour too, brown bread and caramel again. Fair enough.
