Can 0,33L. Slightly hazy, copper red colour with frothy beige head. Light aroma of brown sugar, honey, caramel. Light to medium body, moderate sweet taste with moderate bitter aftertaste. Watery texture, lively carbonation and light metallic finish feel.

Well, it looks good but this so called red beer is a disappointment. Artificial flavour, short and metallic aftertaste. More body than other Harboe brews, but nothing to waste money on!

Virtually hop free. Sort of golden. Certainly fun free. Did I miss my mouth? Lacks character and appeal on all levels. No.

copper ... thin white head ... soft musty grassy toffee ... fizzy ... soft toffee malts ...
