Ungstrup (23960) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - FEB 20, 2010

MiP (11783) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - FEB 20, 2010
Bottle, 13.1%. Mild paint thinner aroma. Cloudy dark orange colour. Very small frothy white head. The flavour starts off alcoholic. Not undrinkable, but strong. Then there is some yeastiness. Finishes with a yeasty note and more alcohol. A bit sourish in the finish, too.

Papsoe (22985) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - FEB 20, 2010
Bottle 50 cl. Pours a cloudy golden with a tiny, rough white head. Sweet fruity nose. Strangely not that full-bodied, lots of fresh fruit and then comes a shot of vodka! The alcohol really is massive and almost burns your throat through the finish. 200210
