COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This is the sister beer to our award-winning ale, Damnation. Fashioned after a Belgian-style “single”, this ale is rarely brewed in America, let alone Belgium. Typically, “singles” are brewed only at the Trappist Monasteries for the monks to enjoy with meals. They often drink only half of a bottle with lunch and the rest with supper, despite the beer’s low alcohol content. Redemption is modest in strength, robed in warm golden hues, and soft on the palate with a smooth dry finish.

AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20

Ungstrup (26267) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - DEC 2, 2006

A hazy orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of coriander, oranges, and bread. The flavor is sweet malty combined with a dry spicyness. The body is thin. I’m not very impressed.

Hildigöltur (5106) - København, DENMARK - DEC 1, 2006

Bottled. Hazy pale yellow coloured. Citrus and wild yeast aroma. Light sourish yeast and lemon flavour. Light bodied. Short finish. Drinkable, but rather bland.

Bottle. Hazy yellow coloured with a white head. Aroma of fruits and spices with light acidic notes. Flavour of fruits, spices and hops. Fizzy palate.

Papsoe (25131) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - DEC 4, 2006

(Bottle 75 cl) Hazy, pale golden with a small, white head - looks very much like a Belgian Wit. Aroma of yeast and perhaps a whiff of coriander. Very light-bodied, dry and tart - or perhaps rather lactic? A brew of limited interest. 011206
