The beer is clear dark brown with hints of ruby, a tan high and firm head leaving lots of lacing.

The smell has toffee, nuts, grape-fruit and pine resin in a good mix.

Tasting of sweet brown bread with orange jam and some bitter orange peel.

A medium high carbonation, lively bubbles yet a a soft feeling, a nice long dryness.

A good well balanced resume of a good brewers work.

The colour is deep brown; the liquid clear. The finger thick head is beige.

The smell got notes of tobacco, some flowers and leaves, molasses, red berries and tobacco flowers.

The taste starts with a sweet note of honey. It is a bit unpolished and dry. Lots of hay and fresh grass from the aroma hops. Fruity notes of black currant and ripe apples. The semidry aftertaste got hints of wood, tobacco, flowers, wool and a touch of smoke.

The carbonation is mild, the bubbles small. The liquid is light.

A beer that got lots of Ocean house flavours, more than any other beers I have had from them: Lots of malt and aroma hops. Not their best, but still an interesting beer.
