POLK (1277) - Hørning, DENMARK - DEC 26, 2011
Red / Brown color with nice head. Lots of raspberry / strawberries in flavor. Flavor is like candy wit all the Berry. Ok to be a fruit beer.

Pinball (7771) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - APR 14, 2011
Bottle from Voldby Købmandsgaard. I was lucky to get one of the old ones last year. bbf 2011-01-22. clear brown/amber/red (red-brown) large super smooth offwhite head. strong aroma of various kinds of berries, fresh citrussy berry-jam. practically no bitterness. flavor is sweet berry jam, citrussy note, fruitpeely bitter note, sweet malts, sweet dark fruits. It is a bit cloying due to the sweetish malty bitterness or sweetish dark fruity bitterness also present.

FatPhil (5964) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - JAN 6, 2011
330ml bottle (Delirium Cafe, Brussels) BB2009-05, drunk 2011-01
6 Very berry aroma, dark ones, in particular raspberry, with the seeds; slightly sharp.
4 Mellow red-orange, clear, small sticky head
6 oldish, sharpened, but a little stale too. Woody and oxidised.
4 Refreshing palate, pleasant carbonation. Sharpness of the fruitys sharpens the palate nicely. Finish starts with the fruits, but they fade rapidly, and leave a dry woody aged long finish.
13- Suffering from the age a bit more than the bok, as the oxidisation of the malts and hops have pulled away from the fruit component, and the presumed integration has gone.

Warning! Early amateur rating! Strawberry, Raspberry, Blackberry, Redcurrant, Blueberry and Cherry! Suprisingly not that sweet but quite fruity (duh!). Malty aftertaste. Easy drinking.

Bottle @ Amby. Reddish brown with a small white head. Aroma and taste of sweet beeries, cherrie and sugar. Medium body, low carbonation. Not bad, but way to sweet for my liking.101120
