Apr 8, 2007 (Bottle 35,5 cl) Beautiful, warm, clear amber with an off-white head. Lightly sweet caramel aroma. Medium body with dry notes of caramel and a fairly hoppy finish. Well crafted. 290307

Feb 15, 2005 Copper colour. Earthy-hoppy aroma with crystal malts. Fresh grapefruity hops, hint of crystal. Balanced, tasty. One of the better, and more robust, examples of the style.

Jul 7, 2003 Dark redish amber, thick slow lacing. Yummy hoppy with slight alcohol aroma. Flavor is unbalanced, almost no malt flavors, spicey though. Palate is sweet and bitter, very decent. Refreshing alternative for ambers with a very modern twist.

Oct 31, 2005 Bottle acquired in trade with DarkElf (thanks!). Bottle best before 06/03/05. Poured a darker and cloudy amber color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of pine (reminds me of wintergreen gum) and some citrus. Tastes of pine, light caramel, and other malts. I get some light spiciness as well.

Apr 22, 2008 Little yellow rim over hazy amber beer. Fruity nose, red fruit and berries. Bitter taste, lots of hops but with a certain lack of malt backing. Good bitterness, however, leafy. Light bodied, refreshing. Very fruity, certainly for a red ale. Not at all bad.
