Aug 12, 2008 Vintage 2003. Warm amber with a huge, nice and creamy head. The mouthfeel is very flat. The aroma has a light sweetness and notes of alcohol, fruit and yeast. The flavour has sweetness, notes of malt, fruit, alcohol, citrus, quite a bit of yeast, and it has a nice bitterness, growing towards the finish. The alcohol is a bit too dominant IMO.

May 10, 2008 Bottle, bought @ Tønden, Haslev.<br /><i>[vintage 2003]</i><br />Deep, muddy orange with a big, frothy off-white head. Fizzes away slowly. Aroma is deep of toffee, oranges, plums, grapes, yeast, citrus. High carbonation, rather creamy. Flavour is sugary sweet with a heavy dose of hoppiness. Pine, citrus and oranges appear again. A bit ill-composed, but still a nice brew.

Mar 19, 2008 Bottle sampled at Brugs Bertje. Pleasant aroma of herbal hops, yeast and mild rubber. Cloudy golden pour with a medium white head. Good flavor of herbal hops with yeast, it’s also well attenuated. The body is medium with a creamy texture and medium carbonation. I prefer the "restyled" version of the Extra, but this first version is still a pretty good beer.
