Hazy brown with a medium beige head. Sweet aroma with roasted malt, caramel and rye bread. Sweet flavour with roasted malt, caramel and dark fruits. Finished sweet.

UPDATED: JUN 26, 2010 Bottle. Cloudy dark brown colour. Small light brown head. The flavour is tart, citric, even sour. Not good.

Bottle sampled at Papsø’s on 8/30/09: Pours a cloudy mahogany amber with an airy froth of tan head. Aroma of sweet sugary caramel and light fruity notes with a touch of earthy hops. Starts very effervescent and semi-sweet with a toasty caramel maltiness and a drier earthy bitterness that lingers in the finish. Seems kind of off with a lot of yeasty carbonation and earthy bittersweetness.

Dark brown colored with hazy appearance. Huge light brown head. Aroma is standard Danish with flowery-vegetables, chocolate and burnt rubber also here, some roastiness also here. Medium bodied, carbonated palate. Flavor is similar with burnt-rubber and glue, chocolate and sourness here too. Not very clean.

UPDATED: OCT 8, 2009 Bottled (as Broballe 50 År Ohøj). Hazy brown clour, medium beigeish brown head. Aroma is caramel malts, some slight fudge, mild notes of smoke. Flavour is fudge, hay, grains and some nutty notes.

Bottled as "Broballe 50 År Ohøj" (BB 12/2009).
Tnx Timo A.. Very lively bottle. Dark brown color, small brownish head. Caramel, vegetables, licorice, yeast in the nose. Flavor has caramel, licorice, blue berries. Sweet and yeast.

It is beautiful, red-brown with a creamy head. The aroma is milky sour with a touch of caramel. The flavour has sweetness and notes of sour milk, light cheese, malt and sour berries – clearly infected.

Draught. High creamy and lasting off-white head. Very dark brown almost black body. Sweet and weak roasted malt caramel qaroma. Heavily carbonated roasted malt flavor with sour berries and caramel. Long aftertaste.
