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.

(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

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.

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.

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?)

Bottle, 7%. Clear dark amber colour. Nice bonbonlike hop aroma. Peppery flavour. Very caramelly. Mild carbonation.

Bottle. Clear amber coloured with a white head. Sweet aroma of caramel, rye bread and fruits. Flavour of fruits and caramel with hoppy notes.
