Bottled. An amber beer with a light sediment floating under a thin white head. The aroma has notes of fruit and malt, as well as a light oxidation. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of fruit - peaches and oranges, as well as notes of malt, alcohol, and oxitation, leading to a dry fruity finish. The body is light inspite of the 8% ABV. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Bottle 65 cl. Courtesy of goryshkewych. Clear deep golden with a small off-white head. Sweet malty aroma - a little oxidized perhaps. Medium body, sweetish malty and again perhaps a little oxidized with overripe fruit. Carbonation is a little low. Sweet malty finish, no real bitterness. A little over the top but still a decent drink. 220909

Bottle at Papsø. Clear golden coloured with a small white head. Sweet and fruity aroma of spices and caramel. Fruity flavour of spices, caramel and hops with notes of grass. Spicy finish.

Cloudy golden with a tiny short lasting head. Sweet aroma with roasted malt, caramel and hoppy notes. Flavour sweet with peach and malty notes.

Golden-amber colour, but slightly dull. Not much head. The aroma is pale malts and light spice. Light spice and vague malt on the palate. Light caramel. Not finding the promised pandemonium; this is pretty bland.

Hazy deep blond color. The aroma is light, too light malt and cereals. It has a light malt flavor, with some residual sweetness, and smooth mouthfeel; it feels like being old. Quite forgettable.
