Kriegbaum (606) - Randers, DENMARK - JAN 31, 2012
Bottle of 50 cl. Clear golden with an orange tinge, and a small white head. Aroma of malt and light hops and faint fruity notes. The taste is sweet and slightly dry with fruity notes. Sweetish taste with a slightly hoppy finish. A little disappointed hop profile, as I had expected an English inspired IPA and got a Bitter

From a bottle. I used to enjoy drinking this, today however it was fairly unbearable. Smells rank, dusty, musty, skunky, yeasty with some caramel. Similar tastes. Tastes like an old mans wet dream. Couldn’t finish it

Aroma and taste of sour caramel, butterscotch and some hops. The taste is thin and watery, the aftertaste has a sour tone.

worldbeertaste (397) - Lancashire, ENGLAND - SEP 29, 2011
Smooth feel with a light dry feel. Golden orange colour with almost no head. Sweet malt smell with citrus and wood. Sweet at first with a bitter dry finish. Light carbonation. Not overly hoppy. Grass and fruity (apple juice?). Refreshing.

tkrjukoff (2236) - SWEDEN - AUG 27, 2011
Pours clear pale amber with a small off white head. Aroma is weak to medium piny, grassy, grainy, a bit soapy and sweet. Flavor is very fruity and sweet in front, nice acidyness together with citric and piny hops behind. Finishes pleasantly fruity bitter.

JanLaursen (721) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - AUG 26, 2011
Clear dark orange beer with a tiny, rather short-living white head. Aroma is moderate in every way: Moderate malty, moderate hoppy, with caramel notes and faint hints of lemon and grapefruit. Flavor is - surprise, surprise - moderate and modest. Sweet malty, slightly fruity and light bitter with a dry finish. Body is thin, texture is oily, carbonation is rather flat. Delicate, decent and well done, but ........

prawlie (474) - Berkshire, ENGLAND - AUG 9, 2011
On draught at The Old Manor in Bracknell. Orange/gold and a bit cloudy with good head. Bitter and dry hoppy on the palate, reasonable. A little more character than the average ale. Lightly hopped aroma.
