X1 - Nynäshamn Galena

X stands for beers that I try that are not in the book - hence the the title of the blog - "1001 Beers.....and beyond!".
Nynäshamn Ångbryggeri is my favourite brewery in Sweden. They always manage to make beers that are really up my alley. And this specialbrew #6, as it is called beside Galena, is no exception.
The nose is very deep and flowery with lots of peaches, lime and grass. The sweetness is pronounced, deep and just great. Very, very good.
The taste is tight and nicely bitter with lots of yellow fruit and a long, balanced finish. The taste is more restrained that the nose but never the less very good. Another winner from Nynäshamn.
