Honestly this beer surprised me. Smokey, roasty, malty, hoppy, grainy. I'll be looking for more Amber lagers for sure, and specifically this one.

1 pt. 6 fl. oz. bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 6.5%. Very dark brown colour, big to moderate beige head. Moderate aroma of caramel and toasted brown bread, hints of dark dried fruits. Decent flavour, caramel and toasted brown bread again, a hint of fruit, moderate but sufficient hops in the finish. Well balanced and pleasant to drink.

Comes out brown with a ruby dark red to the edge of the glass making a soft off white head 2/3" deep. Aroma didn't drop much on me.

Taste was a smoky malt lager, brown malt, hot rocks make a sticky viscosity and coating when you drink it. I don't see myself going back to this one beyond this one tick, but its a decently priced bomber and unique beer.
