440 ml can, as Monkey Brew Nova Christmas NEIPA, from Gulating ølutsalg, Stavanger. ABV is 4.7%. Hazy pale yellow colour, large to moderate white head. Aroma of pineapple and other tropical fruits, also citrus. Citric mouthfeel. The flavour has soft tropical fruits, also citrus and pine needles, moderately bitter finish. Nice and refreshing beer, but there is absolutely nothing "Christmassy" about it.

330 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 12%. Very dark brown to black colour, moderate beige head. Vinous and malty aroma, notes of lightly roasted malts, cheap red wine and dark dried fruits. The flavour has the same elements as the aroma, not too sweet, not too heavy, moderate to low bitterness. Not your usual imperial stout, but interesting and nice to drink.

330 ml paper-covered bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 11.3%. Black colour, large beige head. Aroma of moderately roasted malts, hints of leather and liquorice. The medium sweet flavour has notes of roast malts, liquorice, caramel and dark chocolate, some woody notes too. A tad too sweet perhaps, but still a good beer.

Appearance - 7 | Aroma - 4 | Flavor - 4 | Texture - 3 | Overall - 3
330 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 5.5%. Clear and pale green (yes, really!), moderate off-white head with a greenish hue. Aroma of vegetables, olive leaves and mild spices. Thin mouthfeel. Flavour with the same elements as the aroma, hardly any bitterness. Boring beer, won't buy again.

330 ml can, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 12%, IBU 35. Very dark brown to black colour, small tan head. Intense aroma of caramel and treacle, also boozy notes of raw alcohol. The flavour is not as sweet as the aroma made me fear, still with notes of cassonade and alcohol, some woody notes, moderately bitter and slightly peppery finish. Drinkable, but I'd go for a Trappist in stead.
