650ml bottle thanks to Dutchdrebus. Slightly hazy ruby red color, small lightly creamy off-white to beige head that leaves fair lacing. Smell pine, spruce, resin, hops, lightly some caramel. So much pine that it almost becomes sweet. Taste malts, hops, bitter, lightly dark chocolate to moccha, some blackberries as well. Pretty weird combination but combines nicely! Medium body and carbo.

Pours a very dark reddish brown color with a decent head. Big aroma of caramel malt and spicy hops. Taste is very malty and spicy, very good. Almost tastes like a barleywine. Finish is slightly dry and spicy, which remains on the tongue for a long time. A really good beer.

Bottle. This beer is now one of my favourite red ales. It has the lovely caramel malt sweetness with the added bonus of hop bitterness throughout and on the finish.

3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20 Defreni (1909) - Husum, DENMARK - MAY 16, 2012
Flaske: Rødbrun let diset øl. Tyk duft af sødlig malt, karamel er meget udtalt, men stadig er der en aggressiv humle. Smagen er karamel og igen udtalt humle. Mundfylden er meget tyk og er egentlig fantastisk på så lave alkoholprocenter. God øl.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 Gusgus (202) - Mölndal, SWEDEN - MAY 14, 2012
Bottle from Bine & Vine, San Diego. No BB date. Pours copper with thin latte head that disappear quick. Medium to big aroma of pine, fresh peeled potatoe, lemons, grassy, haylike hops, slightly flowery and a hint of caramel and read fruits, like caramel apples, pear, plum and dried apricots.
Medium to dry body, lightly roasted malt with some toffee. Pine and grapefruits apparent, and finally some toast and roast as well as burnt raisins. Very nicely balanced and complex.
