500 mL bottle from Whole Foods Market Charlottesville, VA. Best before 05 JAU (?) 2012. Pours a dark hazy brown color with a moderate creamy tan head. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma is tart, almost bretty with some malty brown sugar notes, berries and something a bit vegetal. Taste is tart cherries, brown sugar and other malty notes and a spicy finish. Medium bodied. Decent beer.

Ungstrup (22911) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - JAN 23, 2012
Bottled. A dark amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of malt and caramel. The flavor is very sweet with notes of caramel, cola, and boring malt, leading to a dry metallic finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Papsoe (21782) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - JAN 23, 2012
Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Pours amber with a slight haze and an off-white head. Horrible skunky aroma with lots of phenols (?) for some reason all gluten free beers come out like this. Medium body, oxidized Sherry notes and a slight roast. Taste is better than the aroma - luckily. 230112

Syzzer (216) - Oregon, USA - DEC 26, 2011
UPDATED: DEC 27, 2011 MY LABEL SAYS AMBER ALE WITH DISCOVERY IN THE CENTER. I BELIEVE THIS IS THE SAME BEER. This is a nice beer, for a gluten free variety. It is mellow, malty with a nice amber color
