Orange-red-brown. Malty aroma with notes of plastic and herbs. Animal notes. Maltsweet flavor with notes of chocolate. Decent bitterness

Bright orange-amber; with a disappearing brownish head. Dry, but discreet hops, a bit of turmeric. Sweet, alcoholic taste, but at the same time dry and spicey - though flavourwise not necessarily turmeric any longer. Medium bodied, lightened somehow by the alcohol. Good beer, presenting itself stronger than it is, just not really distinctive as some of this brewery’s products are. Still.

(Draught) Clear amber color with a medium, foamy and slightly tanned head. Caramely, slightly roasty, neutral aroma with sourish-vineous hints. Caramely-malty flavor with aromatic, piney hopping. Medium-bodied, slightly slicky-vinous palate with smooth carbonation. A nicely hoppy, neutral and balanced brew. Could be fuller, but suits the style.

Bottle. Amber colour with a big beige head. Sweet caramel malty, hoppy aroma and taste. Medium body with a sweet light dry finish.

Bottle. Clear amber coloured with a small white head. Aroma of malts, hops, pine needles and citrus. Flavour of malts, hops and pine needles.

Bottle, pours clear amber with a large foamy, off-white head. Good lacing. Nose of cascade hops and malt. Flavour of malt, citrus and caramel. Medium bodied. Pleasant bitter finish. Crisp and enjoyable.

Bottle. Clear amber with a medium head. Complex aroma promising milk chocolate, toffee,and a hint of raisins. The taste delivers the same with good balancing bitterness. A beer worthy of a "kalas".

50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a lacing white head. Light hoppy aroma. Flavour is fruity hoppy with a medium dry malt base and nice light bitterness. Light mix of malt and light hops, solid malt base and delicate hops on top into the finish. Good balance.

330 ml bottle. Small filmy tan head over a bright reddish brown body. Aroma is herbal and floral hops, cream-caramel with some vague scents of acidic fruits. Bready, caramelish and quite hoppy taste. Medium body, smooth and dry palate. Lingering hops from start to end. Nils Oscar is my man!

From Superbrugsen, Aarhus Bottled Fruits and caramel in aroma and flavor. Some hops
