2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
500 ml can. I don’t see a widget, but it pours as if there were one in there. Pale copper colour with a thick, persistent white head. Aroma of caramel malts and UK hops. Nice fruity malts and spicy hop aromas typical of UK bitters. Mouthfeel needs some carbonation, the beer just seems limp and lifeless (probably the nitro). Watery palate. Sweet, fruity malts, spicy and slightly woody hops with a hint of stale flavour. It isn’t really bad, it just needs more to be good.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Fizzy apple juice aroma with underlying peppermint candy...Bitter, peppery hops desperately trying to survive the ailing body...A little caramel and a few disgruntled, metallic flowers fail to create more interest...
1.3 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 4/20
Like a lager, easy drink and mouthfeel. Serviceable beer, better than a macro. Pale lagercolour,residual bit of yeast on top, no head to speak of. nothing in aroma, in fact a negative. . Was there a hop? No but metallic rather than a nice bitter finish.

Can. Orange colour with a medium white head. Sweet caramel malty, grassy aroma and a light sweet perfumed malty, fruity taste. Medium body with a light dry sweet finish.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
UPDATED: APR 12, 2004 Amber color and shy head. Caramel is pretty much the only aroma I detect. The taste is a pleasant mix of cereals and caramel. Good, but simple, fits english pales okay, but I'd have put it into the bitters.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Amber orange body with a thin white head. Bit of English hops in the aroma. Pretty standard English ale, with some moderate hoppy bitterness. Fairly well balalnced and quaffable with lingering bitter aftertaste. Palate is nice.

UPDATED: FEB 7, 2004 Orange-brown color with a rather smal lhead. Maybe some cocoa or chcolate in the aroma. Smoky flavour, full body and anda bitter finish.

It is obviously not just in Denmark that Carlsberg brews bland and boring beer.
