A clear red beer with a beutiful light brown head. The aroma is hoppy with notes of caramel, roasted bread, and Apollo yeast. The flavor is sweet with notes of roasted malt, Apollo yeast, and loads of caramel. The carbonization tickles the tongue. It is too sweet for my liking. A very standard beer from Apollo.

Draught at Apollo Bryggeri, Copenhagen.
Unclear dark amber/orange beer with a foamy light tan head. Sweet fruity and nutty aroma with pervading caramel and light spicy tones. Full and delicious. Flavor is sweet at first but has a fine bitterness in the finish. Dry and citrusy and quite tasty!

Draught @ the brewpubUnclear dark amber coloured. Light brown lasting head. Malt, berries, light fruit in the aroma. Caramel, light spices, hops, malt and fruit in the flavour. Is light bitter and fruity in the end. Smooth and easy to drink. Maybe a little to bland and boring, but all in all a decent beer.

Draught at Bryggeriet Apollo. Served in small Apollo glass. Slightly hazy brownish red. Off-white head. The aroma is fantastic: pleasantly, warmly spicy - very inviting! The taste is very well balanced between caramelish malt and a nice, hoppy bite. Good drinkability. Highly impressive - easily the best beer I’ve tasted from Apollo so far. More, please...
