Ungstrup (11385), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 16, 2003 [Nitro can] This beer has a sweet aroma with notes of roasted malt, yeast, caramel, and fruit. The color is amber and it has the dense nitro-head - a beutiful head - but in my opinion cheating. The mouthfeel is extremely soft due to the nitrogen. The flavor is of Caffrey - there is something unique - though on my tastebuds not that interesting about Caffreys flavor. If I should describe it; very sweet and malty - from a weird malt blend bringing out notes of caramel, roasted bread, fruit, and yeast. The end has an OK bitterness that lingers on the tongue together with notes of the roasted malt. The body is thin. Not a favorite with me. omhper (10728), Stockholm, Sweden May 6, 2002 Brownish amber and very creamy. Sweet, rather malty, fruity, with creamy mouthfeel, but lacking in character and with a very industrial feeling to it. Papsoe (10529), Frederiksberg, Denmark Dec 10, 2005 (Can 50 cl) 4.8% ABV in this version. Bronze coloured with a thick, creamy head - whipped cream style - from the widget’s nitrogen. Very soft and smooth mouthfeel with a flat feeling. Weakly caramelish with a marked bitter finish. Ideal for heavy consumption. 120102 Oakes (6979), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Nov 22, 2000 I can’t believe what I’m reading. You could pump nitrogen through tap water and make it smooth. So what? Real smoothness should be attained with lagering, yeast selection, mashing, etc. You want smooth - try Sam Smith’s Oatmeal Stout, or Gale’s Festival Mild off the cask. Now that’s smooth the way it should be. yespr (6943), Copenhagen O, Denmark May 11, 2008 Updated: May 24, 200850 cL can. Pours clear orange with a creamy white head. Mild creamy malt aroma.

From tap at Den Engelske Fredericia as Thomas Caffreys Irish Ale. Pours clear and golden orange with a dense off-white head. Mild caramel and slight toasted aroma. Smooth mouthfeel with almost no carbonation. Flavour starts with a light fruity note. Medium dry and bitter flavour with a dry and vague malt base. Ends with a light fruity hops bitterness. Nice and smooth although nothing special.6-3-5-3-12=2.9
