3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 beerisgoodforu (645) - Nørresundby, DENMARK - AUG 25, 2011
Bottle. Pours a very dark copper/amber color with a frothy beige head. Aroma is lightly tart with notes of lemongrass, candy like sweetness, caramel malts, nutty notes, a kind of stinky sake aroma and funk. The flavor is also lightly tart with alot of candy like sweetness, along with lemongrass, subtle oak and woody notes, caramel, breadiness and barnyard like funk. The body is medium with a dry motuhfeel. Overall a quite unique beer, sake notes doesn’t really stand out other than subtle notes in the aroma, but good brew nonetheless.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Palme (1200) - Bergen, NORWAY - AUG 22, 2011
0.33l bottle from BrewDog webshop. Pours a dark heavy clouded, almost murky, bronze body with a small bubbly and sidesticking caramel head. Aroma is sweet with some dark fruits, malts with some hints of dark caramel and perhaps even some blackberries and black currants. Not to much going on there, but nice enough. It’s average carbonated, has a thick and oily mouthfeeling and it’s quite full-bodied. Flavors are dark malts, some alcohol, burned sugar, perhaps even a bit of burned rubber, nice browned nutty-butter and it ends mild bitter and light sweet with some alcohol lingering in the aftertaste. Interesting enough!
3.9 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20 jcr (1624) - Jasper, Indiana, USA - AUG 20, 2011
Bottle. Hazy deep amber. Lasting, fizzy off-white head. Strong brett, wood aroma. Notes of fruit, sour cherries, barnyard, leather and a hint of band-aid. The flavor is lightly sweet, lightly to moderately bitter and lightly acidic. It finishes lightly sweet, lightly to moderately bitter and lightly to moderately acidic. Medium body, watery texture turning slightly syrupy in the finish and lively carbonation. Lacquer, barnyard tastes along with a tartness that turns to bitterness. All the aromas come through as tastes. At first, I thought the brett funkiness and wood was too dominant, but the more I drank the more the other flavors stepped up. Complex, interesting.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Defreni (1781) - Husum, DENMARK - AUG 14, 2011
Flaske: Rødbrun øl med et stort hvidt skumhoved. Speciel duft af krydder i duften hvor den sødlige malt også er klar. Men det fungerer. Smagen er en tand for sød, men igen bakker det egentlig krydderiet fint op. Spændende og meget anderledes øl.

It poured a brown color with a tan head. The aroma was malty and bitter with a bubblegum scent. The taste was bitter orange peel and malt with some sours as well. Palate is gritty and chaulky with a dry swallow.
