Ungstrup (10432), Frederiksberg, Denmark Aug 8, 2003 An amber beer with a bubbly and disappearing head. The aroma is slightly hoppy. The flavor is malty, somewhat flowery. It ends on a dry woodyness and a bitterness, that lingers. It is very drinkable, but not special in any way. omhper (9704), Stockholm, Sweden Apr 9, 2007 Bottled at Loch Ness, Stockholm. Cloudy reddish amber,rocky head. Caramelly nose with some paper. Medium sweet, light bodied. Some wonderful chewy doughy malt laquered by vague hay-like hops. Medium bitterness. The malt carries this beer, and that is where Hook Norton excels. Papsoe (9242), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 23, 2005 (Bottle 50 cl) In my version simply called "Hook Norton Bitter". Pale caramel colour with a small head. Weak malty character and ditto bitterness. But very, very quaffable. A fairly ordinary Bitter. 210301 sk8viking (5997), Copenhagen, Denmark Dec 13, 2004 Bottle.
