We were excited to visit the brewery as they also house Sòlas Distillery. Sòlas is currently the only Nebraska distiller with a product on the market (Joss Vodka).

Haandbryggeriet – Dark Force

Posted By John on May 15th, 2009

hand_brewery_darkforce_bottle_smallBeer: Dark Force

Brewery: Haandbryggeriet in Drammen, Norway

Style: Double extreme imperial wheat stout

ABV: 9.0%

Reviewed:
12-May-2009 on Episode 140

Appearance: Black with a dark tan head.

Aroma: Caramel, coffee, chocolate and a little alcohol.

Taste: Bitter coffee, chocolate. Even though the alcohol was perceptible in the aroma it was not in the taste.

Mouthfeel: Silky. We don’t know if it was a result of the wheat, but it was interesting.

Aftertaste: Bitter roasted coffee with a Dry finish.

Overall: Interesting beer that is its own style. Well done and we reccomend giving it a go.

Notes: Our bottle had a plug of sediment stopping up the bottle. As best we can tell it in no way comprimised the taste. Solid smooth beer. Great if you want a dark beer with a ligther body. Would go well with a slow cooked beef roast.
