Ungstrup (23960) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - JUL 15, 2009
Bottled. An amber beer with an orangey head. The aroma has notes of caramel and apricots - not for me. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel and apricots as well as a bit of hops, leading to a dry, slighlty acidic, and bitter finish.

Papsoe (22985) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - MAY 4, 2006
(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a clear, dark amber with a small head. Fruity, hoppy nose. Rather full body, lightly sweet with some caramel and an underlying, pleasant fruitiness. But still a dry, hoppy finish. Thanks to Degarth for sharing this. 030406

yespr (22207) - Copenhagen O, DENMARK - JUL 28, 2009
12 fl oz bottle. Pours clear and golden deep orange to amber with small off-white head. Aroma is mild hops fruity and caramelish. Sweet and fruity flavoured with a distinct citrusy and light peachy hops dominant flavour. Good caramel malt flavoured body to this. Ends dry and crisp bitter.

oh6gdx (16047) - Vasa, FINLAND - APR 7, 2007
Bottled (thanks Degarth!). Deep golden colour, small white head. Aroma is Cascade and some other hops, some caramel, apricots and a bit sugary hints also. Flavour is grassy, quite sweet hoppy along with caramel and some sugary hints (from apricots?)

omhper (15964) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - MAY 6, 2004
Bottled. Brownish amber, small head. Fruity, citric hop aroma. Sweet with a light touch of apricot and jam. Hard, clean, simplistic malt profile. Lingering bitter finish. Complex interplay between fruit and hops, but all this is beautful paint on a plain malt foundation.

joergen (14984) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - AUG 13, 2006
Bottle. Clear amber coloured with a white head. Sweet aroma of caramel, rye bread and fruits. Flavour of fruits and caramel with hoppy notes.

fiulijn (10407) - Como, ITALY - JAN 10, 2006
Hazy golden color. Hop aroma, iron, apricot kernels. Medium maltiness, enough hopping, no fruit flavor. Simple.

Bronze; fresh apricots combine with citric, leafy hops. Refreshing, good balance with bready malt flavours.
