3.4 Beautiful redbrown ale with a rather small head. Aroma of old basement. Taste somewhat, lacking somewhat in bitterness. But pleasant overall.

2.7 Flaska 330 ml från Systembolaget. Ljust kopparfärgad, disig med vitt blekt skum som snabbt lägger sig. Doft av malt, bröd och torkad frukt. Smak av malt, bröd, torkad frukt och kryddor. Ganska tunn i smaken, upplever även "krockar" mellan de olika smakerna.

2.2 Helt okej Ale, inget speciellt

2.7 Keg at The Library Bar at the Central Hotel, Dublin. Clear ruby with a dense offwhite head. Aroma is a little hidden under a pillow head, but there’s some toasted malt, rye and caramel in there. Flavour has a roasty hint and some berries and earthy hops.

3.1 Malty and caramel in the fragrance and flavor. Easy bitterness that fills the upper part of the mouth to a weak moment. Good beer. Follow me @ Kung av öl @ Facebook for more pictures and ratings.

2.1 Pours clear amber in color with minimal head. Taste is dried cedar, toasted malt and caramel. Light bodied, low carbonation and sweet. Makes for a solid, slightly above average ipa. Decent but I prefer others in the style.

3.4 Red, cloudy with yellow foam that dosnt last. Strong malt, burned caramel sweet. Mild burned aftertaste. A bit watery.

3.1 330ml bottle served in a mug glass. Pours a slightly cloudy amber color forming a small off white head with medium retention that forms some lingering lacings in the glass. Nose is sweet and grassy. Strong caramel and flowery hops. Sweet upfront taste. Strong caramel malts and toffee. Grassy hops. Medium bitterness. Medium body and carbonation. Grass and caramel in the aftertaste. Average

2.9 Aussehen: Feinporiger , mittelhaftender Schaum. Rotbraune Farbe. Nase: leichte Malznote, wenig Röstaroma. Mund: leicht Kohlensäurehaltig, malzig. nicht astringierend. schwacher Nachtrunk

2.7 No foam, dark amber colour. sweet nose, malty taste with a hint of hops. Medium body.

3.0 nice red golden color with a foamy head. taste is malty sweet with a nougat finish

3.0 This beer has a light but persistent foam. The colour is dark Red. The aroma (smell) is light and you only perceive light malt sentors, in the end It is a bit sour but in a right way! I would recommend this, especially with meat.

2.7 Aussehen : Goldgelbes Bier mit schöner Schaumkrone Geruch : blumig und Malz Geschmack : Kräuter und mild

3.1 Bevuta in bottiglia. Birra rossa. Buona e leggera, ma niente di particolare.

2.6 Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

3.9 Brązowe. Niska piana. Zbożowe i ciasteczkowe w aromacie. W smaku dość pełne nieco karmelowe. Dobry red ale. Zdecydowanie warto spróbować

2.9 Bottle. Pours clear deep amber. Caramel, malt, lightly roasted, wet forest. Medium body.

2.3 Pours slightly cloudy copper. Aroma is malty, bread. Taste is malty, leather, light.

1.8 Dark red/amber pour off white head. Notes of Apple and malt. Carbonation so low it tasted flat. Wheat bread and fruit flavors. Bitter aftertaste.

2.9 Bottle. Pours deep amber red with a two fingers thick creamy off-white head. Bland malty aroma, some light caramel notes. Taste is malty sweet, with light nutty bitter finish. Bittersweet aftertaste. Medium body, drinkable. More a English Bitter than a Irish Ale in my opinion.

2.2 Leider hat sich trotz optimaler Lagerung bereits beim Öffnen das halbe Bier verabschiedet. Aroma malzig, beerig. Geschmack leicht sauer und malzig bitter. Im Abgang kommen Röstaromen hinzu. Unrund und nicht mein Fall.

3.2 Bottle from Jason's Food Hall, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a hazy dark amber with a lasting frothy off white head. The aroma is toffee caramel malt, red berry fruits. The flavour is moderate bitter, light sweet, with a smooth biscuit malt, toffee, light sweet fruit, hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with soft carbonation.

3.2 330ml bottle shared by Finn. Slowly creeper. Off-white head to a cloudy dark apricot coloured body. Clingy lacing down the glass. Smell of apple skins and dark dough. Malt-fruity taste of caramel, mid-sweet apples, and orange. Bittersweet ending. Medium bodied. Pretty nice. (Session at Finns place, Tromsø 24.07.2018).

2.8 Tap @ Flakhaven, Odense. Pours amber copper with a small creamy head. Dried fruit, caramel and bread. Dusty. Smooth mouthfeel with a Very Short finish with hardly Any bitterness.

3.3 Flaske fra Systembolaget Kiruna. Delt med Rune på Nerstranda. Vil gjerne ut av flaska. Amber. Høyt tett skum som daler sakte. Litt lacing. Forsiktig krydderaroma. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken blomster. Behagelig lett tørr ettersmak.

3.1 from z'Bierhuus - gusher! dark red beer under a huge creamy beige head; aroma of caramel, red fruits and marzipan; sweet and creamy palate; light earthy buttery and chestnutty finish; not very tasty

3.3 Amber pour, decent khaki head. Nose is malty. Middle is carmelized malt and bread. Finish is more of the malt.

3.5 Bottle in Ireland. Red orange pour, with an off white head. Malty, bread, some caramel sweetness, notes of sulfur, dried fruit, and some lightly bitter hops. Decent.

2.6 33cl bottle. Poured deep amber in color with a thick lasting white head. Caramel, light breadyness and hops. Harsh hops, dryness, caramel and leafy hops.
