MiP (11258) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - JAN 6, 2006
Bottle. Vinous aroma, a little yeasty. Amber colour, very small head. Sweet and malty flavour. Bonbon aftertaste. Aroma and flavour have a slight sourness which does not quite balance it, but it begins to. Aftertaste gets quite yeasty as the beer warms.

fiulijn (10000) - Como, ITALY - SEP 2, 2003
Nice orange color, thick head. Malt and hop aroma, metallic. Dry, light malt, metallic; distinctive blueberry finish. Too long hop infusion. A bit homebrew style, but quite peculiar.

TBone (9096) - Pori, FINLAND - DEC 29, 2005
Bottled (BBE 01/2007)
Clear amber color, small white head. Sour aroma with oak, malts and grapefruit. Woody hoppy, notes of caramel, sweetish malty backbone. Caramel and color puts this close to so called Bière de Garde -style, but is not so fruity than many pure examples of the style.
