Draught. Copper-orange with a tiny white ring of head. The aroma is piney and soapy. Very light body and immensely drinkable particularly because of the super-low alcohol content. Bready,yeasty, along with some piney hops. Sampled at the Ølfabrikken Brewday on May 19, 2006.

Draught @ Ølfabrikken: Orange coloured. Unclear. Beige head. Herbal, fruity aroma. Is light sweet in the flavour. Herbal and caramelly. Quite smooth and full bodied. Is much more bitter in the end, than the ordinary british bitter, but me like.

Sampled from cask at Københavnske Øldage 2006.
Hazy copper colored with no head. Very English style aroma of hop and fruit and a bit of caramel, nice and fresh. Malty, hoppy and slightly spicy flavor with a good bitterness and a dry mouth. A fine example of an English bitter.

Ungstrup (22911) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - MAY 17, 2006
[Cask at Ølbaren, Copenhagen] A hazy amber beer with a nice off-white head. The aroma is sweet malty with light notes of caramel, citrus, and grapefruit. The flavor is light in the beginning, but then comes the hops with lots of bitterness and a dry toffeeish end combined with some notes of grapefruit. The body is very light - almost watery.
