 Ungstrup (11930), Frederiksberg, Denmark
Dec 10, 2007 Cask at GBBF 2007. A hazy golden beer with a thick orange head. The aroma has notes of yeast and citrus as well as a light touch of malt. The flavor is sweet malty with floral notes of hops, leading to a nice bitter finish. The body is thin.

Aug 27, 2007 Cask@GBBF2007. Golden colour, not much head. Aroma is very nectary, wooden and fruitish hoppy. Very nice. Flavour is the same along with some grassy and rather hayish notes in the finish.
