500 ml can. Clear amber body with a fine nice off/white head. Aroma of malt, caramel and hops. Flavor is slightly roasted malt, caramel and a mild bitterness. Quite OK

Papsoe (21782) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - NOV 21, 2006
(Can 50 cl) Beautiful, clear orangey brown with a creamy, off-white head. Completely unclean and flawed aroma of metal and caramel. Light body with weird, unclean accents of vegetables and sweet malt. This beer must be off. 211006

bager (2121) - Copenhagen N, DENMARK - NOV 5, 2006
Canned. Amber coloured with a rather large off white head. Malty and kinda metallic. Flavour of candlewax and otherwise feels very sterile. Easy forgettable.

Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - OCT 22, 2006
An amber beer with an orange head. The aroma is very light with notes of caramel and grain. The flavor is acidic malty with primary notes of caramel, and a dry slightly roasted end.

Tested 17/3-06. Dark red body, with a nice creamy foam. Aroma of malyness and saaz hops in the end. Lots of malt and a little bit of bitternes in the finish. Medium body.

larsga (4431) - Oslo, NORWAY - NOV 25, 2005
Big, offwhite, somewhat creamy head; deep dark red body. Sweet malty aroma with notes of straw- or grass-like hops. Taste is full of sweet malts initially, followed by sweet, caramel and chocolate malts, and relatively mild grassy hops. Overall, an OK beer. Ok for Christmas, ok for any other time. Not that interesting.
