yngwie (9204) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - JUN 1, 2009
Bottle, shared by Papsoe. A hazy, orange-yellow-golden beer with a small, white head. Grainy, fruity and hoppy nose, a bit weaker than I would prefer. Grainy flavor with a nice fruityness, finishing rather fruity. Medium body, dry. I guess the hoppy impression in the aroma is due to something else, don’t know what. Overall, the beer is a bit on the grainy side, with the gruit left in the background. (090514)

JorisPPattyn (6730) - Antwerpen, BELGIUM - MAY 7, 2009
UPDATED: MAY 8, 2009 Draught @ brewpub Fully hazy, straw-yellow beer with very stable, dense yellowish-tinted head, leaving textbook lacerings. Fresh-malty, very grassy, even greenmalt, inviting - hints at white candi sugar. Pilsnermalt flavour, grassy and extremely fresh. Yeasty esters, bit meaty even. Faint spicy, especially retronasal - no more traces of sugar. Well-bodied, long lasting flavours, always young. Individual spices not traceable, hops are not missed. Nice - worth trying (if you can find the brewery)...
