villy83 (262) - Sausalito, California, USA - APR 2, 2011
50cl bottle from a beer retailer. It pours a clear amber liquid with a nice medium-high white creamy head, that lasts throughout the beer but leaves no lacing. The aroma is light and just malty, with caramel and toffee, and a little grain. It tastes more intense, with caramel and toffee from the barley malt. In the mouth it feels smooth, softy carbonated and medium bodied. A refreshing but warm winter beer that feels very pleasant without being anything special. Good presentation (different crown caps for the whole range of Aktiens would be much appreciated, though).

Bottle: Poured a orange copper with a creamy off white. Aroma is sweet malt and caramel. Taste is nice caramel and toffee malts.

Quack-Duck (5601) - Down South, GERMANY - OCT 7, 2008
previously tested on German BTO 12/2006: Schöne Flasche mit dem Gemälde einer nächtlichen, weihnachtlichen Stadt (Kaufbeuren?) vor einem Alpenhintergrund. Zunächst malziger Antrunk und Mittelteil, dann zunehmend hopfig-herb, so dass das Bier gar nicht süßlich wirkt, sondern vielmehr würzig, sehr angenehm.

JensenTaster (1717) - DENMARK - JAN 7, 2008
(on bottle) Clear orange, small white head. Malty and toasted aroma, not much. smal, but perky carbonation, makes it a fst taste of overripe grapes and apples. Warm finish, but also somewhat metallic, I guess from the alcohol, there´s no signs of any bad storage.
