Bottle from Fonefan, thanks! Reddish amber color. Red berries and toffee in the aroma. Thinnish. Very fruity flavor (red berries) with hints of citrus and toffee. Not very outspoken (understatement!) in hop character. But very drinkable.

(50 cl bottle from Knud Bahr) Pours a nicely clear, dark amber with medium, off white head that laces the glass. Malty aroma with notes of burnt caramel. Hits the palate as an averagely carbonated, full-bodied brew with an oily texture and a nice, sweet finish. Taste is harmonic, rounded, mostly sweet and nutty with the previously mentioned notes of burnt caramel.

From Voldby, DK. Bottled, 140511. Red-amber with off-white head. Aroma of malt and fruit. Flavor with caramel and red berries.

Bottle at No5. Copper, light hazy with a beige head. Aroma moderate malty (roasted) and hoppy. Flavor moderate sweet and bitter. Medium body. A beer for drinking!
