3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Papsoe (25131) - Frederiksberg, - MAR 18, 2012On tap. Hazy amber with an off-white head leaving laces. Extremely fresh and crisp citrusy hop aroma. Medium-bodied, initially a light fruity sweetness but then comes a massive and roaring bitterness - fresh and crisp throughout though. But perhaps the hops are a bit too hardcore to call this balanced. 180312

3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 Palme (2234) - Bergen, NORWAY - JUL 9, 2012
On tap @ Copenhagen Beer Celebration. A blurry golden one with a medium sized really bright white and heavy lacing head. It smells grapy and citrussy with some not so pleasant tones of cabbage and salad. It’s light bitter in flavor and it feels refreshing hoppy. Average oily mouthfeel with a medium carbonation level. Grapes and pineapple with some nice malty caramel tones before it ends in a quite grassy finish.Tastes all in all pretty decent. 12.05.2012
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 fiulijn (12179) - Malmö, DENMARK - JUN 6, 2012
Draught at Fermentoren, Copenhagen Cloudy red-amber color, small creamy head. The aroma is fruity and pleasantly flowery (that is a nice surprise; and think of berries), with a background of malt. Good flavor of dark caramel and red malts, good body structure; strong bitterness. Moderate residual sweetness, anyway hidden by the partial roastiness Overall, a good beer that is powerful and bitter like an American IPA, but caramelly and earthy like a British one.

Tap @ CBC. Hazy orange with a tight white head. The nose is light fruit salad, some cut grass and fresh gerb garden. The taste is mango, pineapple, tropical citrus fruits with a malty, jammy finish. The body’s actually quite full for an IPA. Sweet. Overall, decent, though I don’t think this was on top form! Hints of tobacco on the finish.
