This is our new years brew for 2006. It is a bittersweet brew with a assertive sparkle from natural Co2. Three types of caramelized sugar provides this brew with character and a beautiful red color. Refreshing bitterness from German and British hops blends with malt sweetness and caramel flavors, making this brew a robust companion for both cake and cigars. Ølfabrikken Nytår 2006 is, of course, unpasteurized, unfiltered and bottle conditioned like all of our beers. Only available in 1½ liter champagne bottles.

[3] Review by ante from Stockholm, Sweden who has tried this beer once. (9/9/2006 4:01:47 AM)
" Pours out in hazy dull aple orange colour with huge rocky white head. Rather sweet aroma of dried oranges, apricot, toffee and vanilla with dryish edge of soily hops and herbs. Malty flavour of cookies, dried oranges, butter, biscuit anf toffee with grassy hop note. Full but rather slick body. Drier finish of grass, herbs and pepper with touches of alcohol. Sweet undertones of sugar and biscuity malts. "
