Kortedala Enskilda Hinkbryggeri Koboldmaki Amber Weizen  
Sweden
ABV: 6.66%
Rating: 4
Smell is a bit weird but taste is fantastically fresh. The melt between hops and wheat is very smooth. Apple and apricots with a nice bitterness. A real thirst-quencher.

 

 

 

 

Spezial Rauchbier Märzen
Germany
ABV: 5.3%
Rating: 3
Sweet, salt and smokey. Notes of tar and bacon. The after-taste is a little weak compared to the aroma and taste and is like a mix of lager beer and chewing tobacco. Could have had a rating of 4 but I want something from the hops as well, here it is only the malt that is doing the job.

Rating: 3
Honey, bread and hops. After-taste of almond. Fresh when its cold but it gets a little too sweet and sticky when it gets warmer. Still nice and pretty odd.

 

 

 

 

 

Alex Ek’s Habanero IPA
Sweden
ABV: 5.5%
Rating: 3
Fresh. Like a pretty standard IPA from the start but the heavy hop taste soon disappears and the Habanero takes over making this a bizarre spicy brew. Notes of apple. Interesting.

Rating: 4
A nice strong stout with taste of coffee and rum. Well-balanced with well-hidden alcohol.
