Our ship's beer looks to the forgotten tradition of Scandanavian table beers. This smoky old style was brewed to sustain hardy Danish seafarers. Brewed with rye, as well as a combination of smoked malts.

Poured on tap into a wine glass at the brew pub.
A nice tan cream head of two fingers, slightly towards white in shade. Body color is a real nice deep pungent red and brown.
Mild smoke aromas and bouquet with some chewy and sticky wood like malts a bit. Slight leaf like hop action, but with a very light body, almost like a faint burnt matchstick. Quite nice, small and not so bold, but given the low abv still inviting.
Palate comes with a very light body, as to be expected but slightly chalky and somewhat dry. Flavors still manage to come forth with the smoked malts giving of some faint wood, and even some cream like character strangely. Some mild spicy character quality hinting at clove a bit, with a good long finish.
Overall an interesting style and decently done.
