Haven't tried any from HaandBryggeriet yet. Any recommendations, Agi? ^This one?

Colin (Triceratopsoil) recommended another beer from this brand (can't remember the name now), but I haven't found any other than this, "Tremens", from "Delirium" in stores in Norway, so will probably try this one out soon instead.

Probably not anything I can actually get here, then.  That's too bad.




I had that one tonight.  Amber lager- great, but other than the pretty picture, nothing remarkable, really.

The Two Hearted Ale is pretty good if you're ever inclined.

Have not had that beer from that brewery, but their "Norwegian Wood" is awesome. It is a smoked beer with juniper berries, and is quite delicious and not overly smoky.

Oh well, that was a bit misleading on my part. I didn't mean the style of beer which is called "Helles" in Germany (which is indeed pale lager), but rather "helles Hefeweizen", which would be a typical weisse, whereas "dunkles Hefeweizen" is a dark weisse.


Oh haha. Now I feel like I an idiot for making my comment.   

Sorry.

Helles means light/pale. Dunkel means dark.

I have a bottle of the Maisel's in my fridge; I guess i better try it. Thus far the best Weisse beers I have had, have been from Weiheinstephaner. I love their hefeweizen and dunkelweizen.

I found the Hacker-Pschorr Weisse rather meh myself, but I could have had a bad bottle as I have only had it once.

It was fantastic- I look forward to acquiring another next time I go into town.

I have not had that one.

I just tried Green Flash IPA yesterday. I liked it as much as I can like an IPA, but I was not blown away.

I have one more bottle of Westlveteren 12 left. So I plan to drink that for the new year.

I also just bought a four pack of Dieu Du Ciel's attempt at a Bohemian Lager (I imagine it will be like a Czech Pilsner).

Also Barney Flat's Oatmeal Stout is the ultimate cozy winter beer.
