Ringnes Fatøl


It has been a while since I have posted something so today I will be reviewing a different kind of Ringnes called Fatøl. So far I have been very please with Ringnes so at the local store where I am staying I saw this and gave it a try. There isn't really a Norwegian to English translation of the word Fatøl but I was told it means barreled or tapped, and in Norway barreled and tap beer is supposed to be the best quality and freshness. I can see what they mean! This beer poured a very nice deep amber color and had a long lasting and thick head. I was surprised when I had my first sip to find this a thicker brew then the Ringnes Premium. Much more flavorful and like all the Norwegian beers I have had so far very fresh! The nose was sweet and bitter and much lighter then the actual heavy taste. I'm starting to wonder if Norway makes bad beer?

I still have a BUNCH of beers to post yet from Norway, Sweden, and The Czech Republic so make sure to keep checking!!
