Ungstrup (26268) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - APR 14, 2009
Draft. An unclear dar golden beer with an off-white head. The aroma is sweet with a slight tart note and light notes of fruit. The flavor is sweet with a nice acidic edge and fruity notes of citrus, some yeast, and herbs, leading to a quite tart finish. Lovely flavor - surprisingly boring aroma.
