thebeertourist (3981) - Oslo, NORWAY - FEB 9, 2007
Bottle, 6.5% alcohol, not 6.8%. Label only states Boerke, but it certainly looks like the amber. Hazy amber with particles and a small head. Fruity aroma, somewhat metallic. Fruity, sweet, even vegetable flavours. Spiced. Full body. Average

Bottled. Cloudy orange color, beige head, good lace. Citrus fruity aroma, very hoppy. Soft sweet start but soon citric sour, orange, very hoppy, bitter, very earthy, bit dusty, light dry. Technically very much ok but not my kind of flavors. Reminded me of Orval somehow.
