Ungstrup (11930), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jan 20, 2008 Bottled. an amber beer with a lazing thin beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with primary notes of caramel, and so is the flavor, though added a light note of metal, leading to a dry bitter and slightly metallic finish. Thanks to Emil for bringing this home from Iceland. Papsoe (11421), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jan 14, 2008 (Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of Ungstrup. Clear, amber golden with a creamy, off-white head that leaves some lacework. Lightly sweet aroma of caramel. Medium body, lightly sweet caramel and a fairly discreet bitterness. Quaffable but far from exciting. 120108 omhper (11027), Stockholm, Sweden Aug 31, 2007 <i>Bottled at RBESG ’07, thanks Kalli! </i> Clear amber colour. Refreshingly dry with lovely firm, nutty malt. Near all flavours derives from roasty malt. There’s butter and wood. The mouthfeel is light but firm and the finish carefully salty. By far and away the best Icelandic beer I’ve ever had! yespr (8539), Copenhagen O, Denmark Jan 13, 2008 33 cL bottle. Pours golden amber with a diminished white head. Mild roasted malt aroma. Flavour is mildly sweetend malt, slight roasted. Finish is a lingering roasted malt flavour. fiulijn (6110), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy Mar 5, 2008 <i>Bottle at Rover, Göteborg; great generosity of Pelle</i><br />Dark amber color; creamy head. Light aroma of cereals, carmel and very light Saaz. Medium body strength, with a strong caramel flavor and some dark chocolate; it has a good bitterness level, but the caramelized malts cover the hop. The end is dry, as it seems to be quite common for this brewery. Not bad.
