<i> <b> On DFDS Ferry Dana Sirena, heading from Harwich to Esbjerg 10-09-08 </i> </b> Pours classic British amber. Bitter taste with med’ cabonation, slight haze to this beer, white head that quickly disappears. Some woodiness on the nose, Loz says she gets banana and caramel I’m not so sure I totally agree bit its a good shout. Taste is a bit of damp dark sugar, tad sour, wet wood. Its ok.

Poors like a soda with a 2 second head and a bubbling light brown look. Aroma is quite good. Tasty caramel and some fresh hob notes. Completly overcarbonated palate making it hard to taste anything since its hurting your tastebuds. But then again, after abit some delicate sweet notes comes through. But overall it just doesnt work out.

best bf 26-dec-2008 I recommend ppl to drink this fresh. it seems to get rotten as it ages. nice aroma. like a good beer, and quite strong too. unclear yellow/orange, but the head is giant. flavor : one gulp. initial taste is bitter grapefruit, aftertaste is soap. damn. new pinball record in revolting flavor. i don’t feel like taking another gulp to get the palate, it seemed to be okay. overall. i don’t know what the fck happened at fanø, this is two out of three that are so revolting i can’t really put words to it. i tried a small sip again. sour notes combined with burnt trash container (with contents). truly revolting

Hazy amber with medium off white head. Aroma has caramel malt notes. Sweet fruity flavor with toasted malt, yeast and caramel notes.

On tap at Stefanshus. Pours a clear orange with an off white head. Lots of malty caramel aromas. Low carbonation (only good thing). Medium bodied. Very mellow dry finish with some more caramel.

Bright coppery colored with hazy appearance. Little vanishing yellow head. Brown sugary and nutty-chocolaty aroma with some weird spices. Thin to medium bodied, crispy carbonation. Flavor starts with dominating apple and fruitiness, some caramel also there. Aftertaste is sweet still with fruits still. Weird but rather decent vienna.

Bottle, 4.6%. Sweet hop aroma, slightly spicy. Diacetyl? Cloudy dark amber colour. Small stable white head. The flavour is a little sweet almost sugary, light caramel, spicy hops. The combination of caramelly malt and spicy hops might not be the best, but the beer is not bad.
