Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - OCT 12, 2010
Bottled. An unclear dark golden beer with a thin orangey head. The aroma has notes of oxidation, malt, and straw. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of oxidation, combined with notes of malt, caramel, and metal, leading to a dry bitter finish. Thanks yespr for sharing.

omhper (15600) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - AUG 5, 2003
Bottled. Cloudy orange in colour. Neutral aroma. Some melon, a lot of fizz together with a watery light body and low bitterness makes this a highly disappointing effort from Kalamazoo. Some bubblegum in the finish can't save it.
