Papsoe (22987) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - AUG 3, 2005
(Bottle 30 cl) Beautiful, fully golden beer with a small head. Very fruity aroma. Rounded with some soft, wheaty touches. Sweetness well balanced by a very dry bitterness. This may be called a Bock, but it’s top fermented ("hooggegist"). A positive surprise. 130701

MiP (11783) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - FEB 15, 2012
Bottle, 6.5%. Caramelly and slightly spicy aroma. Does not smell like spicy hops, however. Hint of paper. Clear dark golden colour. Small stable white head. The flavour is a little yeasty and estery, good subtle sweetness. Sort of like wheat beer esters that I do not like too well, but OK.

Dedollewaitor (10292) - Odense, DENMARK - OCT 8, 2011
Bottle @ Beerts Bierhuis, Utrecht. Pours clear golden with a white head on top. Grain, corn and a touch of alcohol. Medium to thin body. Short end.

harrisoni (10070) - Ashford, Kent, ENGLAND - OCT 4, 2009
Bottle at RBESG 09 Sheffield. Clear gold, lasting cream coloured head. Poorish lager to be honest.

yngwie (9177) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - AUG 3, 2011
On tap. A clear, golden to amber beer topped by a finger-thick, white head. Buttery and fruity nose with topical fruits, sugar and grains. Maybe not sounding very good, but it was not bad at all. The flavor has some grains, with fruityness, white sugar and a fine bitterness. Full-bodied and slightly warming, heavy on the carbonation. Warming, bitter and fruity finish. Overall, too buttery but a decent beer. 110502

Bottle @ RBESG 09 Shefield ... very pale yellow ... grassy hop ... cheesy lager ... poor.
