Ungstrup (11930), Frederiksberg, Denmark Apr 25, 2005 [Cask at Volunteers Arms, GBBF 2004] A hazy brown beer with a light brown head. The aroma is powerful dominated by yeast. The flavor is also powerful with strong notes of yeast, but also caramel and roasted malt, leading to a very bitter end. bierkoning (5134), La Tropica, Netherlands Aug 11, 2003 Cask, GBBF. Amber color. Slight hoparoma. Thin, but with a good deal of hopbitterness. Dry oaky mouthfeel. Fairly long hopbitter finish. Hildigöltur (5055), København Ø, Denmark Mar 2, 2004 [Cask conditioned] Quite boring. There seems to be some kind of unbalance between the sweetness and the bitterness. JorisPPattyn (4691), Antwerpen, Belgium Sep 10, 2007 <i> Cask </i> Transparant, but decent fluffy head, over foxy-amber beer. Bit of caramel, UK hops, dry hop sacks, old hessian. Nutty & caramel flavour, but light & relieved by some good aroma hops added. A bit light for a <u>Best </u> Bitter. Quite some slickness, even sticky, caramel ending. Light bodied, but nice, invitingly tasting bitter. jbrus (4350), Delft, Netherlands Oct 12, 2007 Cask@Proeflokaal. Malty and raisin aroma. Light brown color, off-white head, good lace. Sweet, malty, nice hop bitterness, hints of raisin and herbs. Flavorful, nice balance.
