Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - FEB 21, 2004
An orange beer with a small white head. The aroma is sweet hoppy - very nice for a low alcohol beer. The flavor is malty with strong notes of aroma hops - quite pleasant - and very easily drinkable - and refreshing. But it is nothing special.

Papsoe (21782) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - AUG 26, 2005
(Bottle 33 cl) 2,7% ABV in my version. Very pale, almost greyish, with a very fine, dense head. Lovely malty nose, but naturally not much body. But not a bad brew for it’s style. 150700

omhper (15600) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - AUG 15, 2008
Bottled at a Pizzeria in Bamberg. Clear golden, minimal head. Wort like raisiny nose. Sweet with clean hard mouthfeel. Grassy hops are certainly there, but there are way too much sweet wort.

Bottled@Fonefan. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is grass and hay with some mild hops and saltwatery notes. Flavour is very much the same and rather weak. Very watery brew.

MiP (11255) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - AUG 10, 2005
Bottle. Mild aroma, acidic. Pale yellow colour. Stable rocky head. Watery flavour and mouthfeel. Strange, harsh bitterness which I certainly do not like.
