Ungstrup (14758), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jul 3, 2003 The aroma is slightly fruity with notes of anise and an OK sweetness. The color is an unclear dark amber with a fanstastic lasting head. The flavor though is somewhat boring with notes of spices - is it anise? It has some sweetness but no bitterness - instead it has a woodyness, that lingers on the tongue. The flavor becomes better and better the more You drink. It has a really good palate. Papsoe (14642), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jul 22, 2005 (Bottle 33 cl) Dark amber with a nice but not fully stable head. Fresh caramel-like nose. Some "ambrées" are a bit sharp in their bitterness, but tjhis one has a slightly sweet caramel-like touch and comes with added candi sugar. Lovely spicy and very potent. Unique and a wonderful surprise - and great looking in it’s slim, elegant swing top bottle. 151199 omhper (12155), Stockholm, Sweden Jul 7, 2007 Bottled at Belgobaren, Stockholm. Hazy amber, explosive huge rocky head. Yeasty black currant aroma. Bittersweet and somewhat fruity, lively carbonation with a dense core of malt undernetah. Notes of bready malt, kiwi fruits and winegum as well as flowery hops. Piney and spritzy. A pleasant gently warming complex summer rains beer. yespr (11649), Copenhagen O, Denmark Nov 20, 2007 33 cL bottle. Pours golden and clear with a collapsing white head. Aroma is slight orange peel, coriander and yeast. Flavour starts sweet caramel malty and with a whiff of spices. Leads into a nice complex yeasty and spiced finish. Nice. fonefan (10868), VestJylland, Denmark Apr 16, 2007 Bottle. Cloudy amber color with a average fizzy fair lacing mostly lasting off-white head.

Aroma is alcoholic, spicy and a bit skunky. Flavour contains malts, pepper and some alcohol. Very peppery aftertaste. The alcohol is quite wellhidden, so I don’t agree with Miksu on the "sharp alcohol" in the beginning. MiP (8793), Sønderborg, Denmark Mar 2, 2004 Amber colour, white head. Too sweet for my taste, a hint of liquorice. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA May 25, 2008 Name: Bon Secours Ambree
