Unclear orange with a medium beige short lasting head. Sweet fruity aroma wit oranges, and somewaht malty notes. Sweet flavour with malty and caranel notes. Finished sweet.

Bottled (thanks Timo A!). Hazy amber colour, small white head. Aroma is toffee, wood, lot of grassy hops as well. Flavour is very strong grassy hops, some floral hops as well as some toffee and quite sweet malts.

Bottle sampled at Papsø’s on 8/30/09: Hazy copper with an airy off-white wispy-lacing head. Aroma of sweet doughy caramel malt with some light coriander and citrusy hops. Starts effervescent and semi-sweet with some caramel notes and earthy bittering hops before a drier bittersweet finish. Has a malt extract character throughout that reminds me of a homebrew.

Bottle at Papsø’s - Thanks. Cloudy amber - white head. Off - infected, caramel, vegetables, plastic, toffee, berries, glue, sulfor, yeasty, spicy. Øv.

0.5 l bottle at Timo A’s. Hazy yellow brown color, very fizzy appearance but head vanishes. The aromas of toffee, berries, meat broth and sulfur. Toffeish, berryish and yeasty flavor with meat broth and apple. Spritzy mouthfeel, too spritzy.

Dark orange colored with hazy appearance. Little vanishing yellow head. Sweet aroma with lemon and some burnt rubber tone. Thin to medium bodied, very high carbonation. Flavor is also rubbery with thin chocolate, aftertaste lasts with lemon. Not good with unclean tones and high carbonation.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a fully gone head. Aroma is mild fruity and metallic. Flavour is flat orange fruity hoppy with a light caramel malty note. Citric and slight orange fruity to infected flavoured finish.

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Cloudy and opaque deep amber with a small off-white head. Aroma of fruit. Light body, brutal carbonation, a little dry fruitiness. Dry finish. 300809

Thank you Lars. After having tasted Hvede right before this one, this really is a major disappointment. It is unclear, orange-brown with a big-bubbly head and the mouthfeel is very fizzy. The aroma has notes of over ripe fruit, caramel and yeast. The flavour has a light sweetness and notes of candy sugar, caramel, light fruit, yeast and the finish is dry with light hints of citrus.
