Bottle @ YNWA, Kolding.
Pours golden with few, but rather large floaties. A big, creamy off-white head. Aroma is light, some fruity estery yeast notes, quite sweet with a slight raspberry tone. High carbonation, but still rather oily (from the high ABV). Sweet flavour, quite vinious, very thick malty and with a good deal of yeasty flavours. A bit too much alcohol for its own good, otherwise nice.

Aug 11, 2008 Bottle from a gift pack. Orange golden colour, white head. Aroma of sweet malts and coriander, citrus, fruits. Flavour is spicy sweet, coriander and anis. Too sweet for me.

Jul 6, 2008 (Bottled) Clear golden with lots of floating, white yeast particles and a small, firm and lacy head. Sweetish, honey-malty and citrusy aroma with some nuttyness. Grainy-malty, dryish and grassy-hoppy, bitter flavor with light fruitiness and nutty coriander spiciness. Hides the alcohol well until it warms up. Medium-bodied with slightly fizzy carbonation. Spicy, herby and hoppy, easy to drink - yet not something I’d buy again.

Jun 30, 2008 300ml bottle (Cracked Kettle)
Pale orange, poured with floaty bits as I wasn’t careful. Simple hoppy aroma, soft and sweet, a little creamy, some citrus. Zingy zesty fruit-cake taste, very clear bitter noble hops too. Quite exciting at first. Alas it doesn’t improve as it warms, in fact it gets a little flat and dulls a bit.

Jun 9, 2008 Hazy orange colored brew. Sweet and fruity aroma. Flavor is fruity, citric and a bit sweet. A bit herbal.

Jun 4, 2008 I saw this labeled as maibock. Nose of coriander, hay and perfumed clove, obviously not maibok. Chewy but light, with a flavor of sweet candy sugar, mild fruit and heavy coriander.
