Slick (1956), Minnesota, USA Nov 6, 2007 Nice amber color,small off white head that had a decent hangtime then faded quickly leaving just a hint behind.The aroma was malty and some caramel with a slight piney note.The flavor came off as fairly good,some nice malt to it a bit of caramel or toffee some mild hints of pine and citrus with a good fairly decent finish.Over all pretty good brew but seems to lack the alcohol punch of some other OA’s i remember from the past...still a good brew nontheless.
bager (2027), Copenhagen N, Denmark Jul 22, 2008 Bottle thanks to Zack. Almost clear and golden in colour with a medium sized head. Interesting but a bit weird. Notes of malt, marmelade, spruce, spices, hops and berries. Theis (2018), Frederiksberg, Denmark May 27, 2008 Bottle at home - tasting. Clear golden - white head. Spicy, berries, knækbrød, dryness, high dryness, hoppy, sweetness, marmelade, raspberries, spruce...... a bit wierd. hittheroad (1), San Jose, California, USA does not count May 27, 2008 Initial flavour of sweet blueberries without a tart aftertaste. A bit of spruce evens out the flavour. The finish is hoppy in an inoffensive manner--good for those who like flavourful beer without a heavy hops taste. sunevdj (1365), Copenhagen, Denmark May 25, 2008 Pours a clear golden with a white head. Very dry and sweet. Aromas of blueberries without theis sourness. Lots of floral spruce aromas. Medium bodied. Dry floral finish. Dogbrick (2209), Columbus, Ohio, USA May 15, 2008 Sample in the Alaskan tap room. This brew pours a hazy, ruddy amber color with a medium thin light beige head that diminishes steadily. Stringy lacing. Aroma of pine, hops and fruit. Medium-bodied with a piney/spruce (prevents scurvy!) character, along with fresh fruit, hops and malt flavors. Touches of spice are present too. The finish is hoppy and malty with a fruit and spice aftertaste. Decent overall.
