3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 ClubGonzo (1732) - Bergen, NORWAY - FEB 6, 2012
Bottle from Vinmonopolet in Valkendorfsgate, Bergen. Pours a hazy orange body with a big creamy white head. Aroma is peppery yeast tones, alcohol, fruit (guava? can’t really tell, as I can’t recall the taste), papaya and hints of pineapple. Taste is the unknown fruitiness I can only assume is guava (this is the second time Cigar City reveals a for me hitherto unknown flavor in a beer; last time was cedar wood), papaya (or do I mistake that flavor for guava?), citric tones and hints of grassy hops. Original and quite nice, but a real nut to crack when it comes to rating. :-P

Sampled from a 750 ml brown bottle this beer poured a cloudy orange-amber color with a large foamy yellow-white head that lingered and left a bit of lacing. The aroma was sweet and yeasty with pepper and a bit of guava. The flavor was tangy and sweet with moderate tropical fruits, sugar and bread. The finish was long and tangy with lingering tropical fruits. Moderately full bodied. Solid.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 Defreni (1774) - Husum, DENMARK - JAN 22, 2012
Flaske: Orangerød uklar øl med et stort hvidt skumhoved. Duften er krydret og har en speciel tone som jeg går udfra kommer fra guavaen. Smagen er tør og let bitter med en meget distinkt smag som igen må være guavaen. Drikbar, men ikke helt til min smag.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 yngwie (8702) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - JAN 21, 2012
Bottle, 75cl, at Patricks. It pours a big, white head over an unclear, orange body. The aroma is on the fruity side, with a distinct hoppyness and some white sugar and alcohol. The flavor blends sweetness and bitterness, incorporating alcohol, fruityness and some alcohol. It’s full-bodied and lightly warming, with pleasant carbonation. A really pleasant one, well worth a revisit or two. 120121
