2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
UPDATED: FEB 15, 2006 [Re-rate in Copenhagen from bottle, brought by the brewer] An undlear orange beer with a nice off-white head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of yeast, but also light notes of oranges, while the flavor is sweet with lots of citrusfruit notes: oranges, lemon, and grapefruit, but also notes of caramel. The body is thin. As I expected in London, something must have been wrong over there - it is still nothing special - but it is far from bad.
[At GBBF 2005] An unclear orange beer with a white head. The aroma stings the nose with acidic notes combined with notes of yeast. The flavor is off - acidic with a few fruity notes of peaches. I hope it is the transportation to London that put this beer off. [3/3/2/3/4]

3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
UPDATED: DEC 13, 2008 <i>2008-12-02, draught at Pig´s Ear Festival 2008, London, 7-4-7-5-15=38</i>
Cloudy amber color. Strange beer: very strong perfumy aroma, like the perfumes in Indian shops, and oranges; then the tangerines and oranges take over, and it gets better. I like the flavor more, with some good malt, medium sweet, and a good hopping with fruity touch &#40;bitter oranges&#41;. Confusingly complex, very good.
<i>2006-05-20, bottle, 7-4-7-5-15=38</i>
Hazy amber color. The aroma has some malt and hop. The flavor has a lot of malt and toffee hop, strong bitterness, well mixed. Strong final. Very good.
