KimJohansen (6676), Copenhagen V, Denmark Mar 30, 2008 Cloudy amber with medium off white head. Sweet aroma with notes of fruits, alcohol and pine. Sweet flavor with piny, caramel and fruity notes. Ends sweet, yespr (11645), Copenhagen O, Denmark Mar 29, 2008 33 cL bottle. Pours cloudy orange with a lacing off-white head. Aroma has roasted malt, light fruity and an almost coffee/chocolate like note. Spiced flavour, light citric, I assume spruce. Ends with a caramel flavour and a smooth chocolate note and mouthfeel. Davinci (295), Chicago, Illinois, USA Mar 22, 2008 Pours a lovely orange clear color with minimal head. Aroma is bread crust with subtle sweetness and mild fruit aroma. Flavor is interesting. Mildly sweet and fruity with hints of spruse and some bread crust on the finish. Body is kind of sugar watery with little carbonation. Definately an interesting beer though it could use more of a kick. ekstedt (2411), Göteborg, Sweden Mar 17, 2008 Bottle (33 cl) at Haket, Göteborg, Sweden. Cloudy amber, low head. Malty and fruity, and very spicy with notes of clove and coriander. Medium bodied and smooth, good balance. DownsouthGav (602), Greater London, England Mar 15, 2008 Bottle. Sweet, pine, hops and malt nose. Pours a copper coloured beer with a white head. Very soft mouth feel, spicy, some sweetness, pines and hops in the long finish. Alcohol burn somewhat in the chest is the only indicator of the beers strength. Quite tasty. UselessGdTaste (363), Long Beach, California, USA Mar 12, 2008 Not as bad as I thought it was going to be. In fact, I enjoyed it. It is very piney, but not irritatingly so. Much more of a viscous beer with a pine addition. Glad to see them continuing with tradition. robforbes (1083), Bremerton, Washington, USA Mar 11, 2008 purchased at 99 bottles in federal way, washington.
pour is a semi-cloudy, orange-brown with a small dirty white head that goes away quickly, no lacing.
smell of raspberry, dough, some spice, slight rubbing alcohol.
taste is strange, watery, pine nuts, malt, some woodiness, light spice, sour aftertaste. fakepurseninja (772), Washington, USA Mar 11, 2008 As expected, lots of pine - not like the acute IPA stinging pine, but a very mellow and rich presence. Drink was too sweet and alkaline, lots of depth but nothing I found noteworthy. Not a bad drink, but most certainly not a variety I enjoy.
