Ungstrup (11031), Frederiksberg, Denmark Sep 22, 2006 A hazy orange beer with a huge orange head. The aroma is sweet grassy with light spicy notes - I find the aroma a bit sharp. The flavor is malty with notes of oranges lingering in the background, on which is dry spicy notes and light hoppy notes. In the beginning I find the hops mostly English in impression (Nothern Brewer?), but towards the end it get citrusy and Cascade-like. And the body is a bit thin. omhper (10393), Stockholm, Sweden Aug 25, 2004 Bottled. Reddish amber, small head. Concentrated juicy orangey hop aroma. Dryish and malty with fairly soft butr clean mouthfeel. Very salty finish with notes of licorice, but not overly bitter.

Slightly watery texture. Ok, but that’s it. kp (6200), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Date: 04/27/1998

argo0 (6145), Washington DC, USA Aug 18, 2002 Nice English-style IPA. Malty aroma, but also some pine. Good hoppiness throughout -- very well balanced. Quite bitter aftertaste. At times it seemed a little watery/thin. Overall not my favorite, but still a decent brew.
