Bottle. Hazy orange golden color with a huge off-white head. Aroma is hops, hops, hops and citrus, grapefruit and a little caramel malt. Falvor is heavy bitter with a long duration and some sweetness in the end. But very biiter / grapy. Dry and soft.

Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - JAN 16, 2007
Bottled. An unclear orange beer with a huge light orange head - like whipped cream. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel and yeast. The flavor is sweet spicy combined with notes of caramel, and malt with a light alcohol burn on the tongue, leading to a dry spicy end.

Papsoe (21781) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - JAN 17, 2007
(Bottle 33 cl) Hazy, amber golden with a gigantic and vey lively, off-white head - sort of shaving foam like. Very spicy aroma with some yeast. Full body with fruity accents, loads of diacetyl and a chemical unpleasant and very distinct bitterness. I’m not really fond of this. 150107

omhper (15600) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - JAN 10, 2010
Bottled. Cloudy golden liquid that explodes all over the room upon opening, spilling near half the bottle onto the floor. Herbal hoppy nose. Dry and very lively, bitter herbs are prevalent. Medium bodied with spritzy mouthfeel. Feels light and pleasantly hoppy with marked herbal bitterness.

oh6gdx (15510) - Vasa, FINLAND - SEP 4, 2009
Bottled (from Belgian Shop). Hazy deep amber colour with a small fluffy white head. Some lace. Aroma is rather sweet malts along with some slight alcohol as well as spices and herbs. Flavour is being quite much the same, along with some slight spicyness. A bit grassyness in the finish. Zesty and alcoholic in the finish. Still in a nice balance.

Bottle at KØ07. Ugly milky caramel brown colour. White head. The flavour is OK, though. Quite peppery with some spicy hop flavour.
