HenrikSoegaard (4263), Randers, Denmark Aug 31, 2008 Bottle. Creamy off-white good mostly lasting head. Amber colour. Moderate malty and hoppy aroma. Light bitter caramellic flavor. Average light bitter finish. Oily plate. Tastes a bit like a brown-ale. Very well-balanced unik beer. JCB (1713), Durham, North Carolina, USA Aug 27, 2008 I have a massive soft spot for this beer, and have consumed more bottles of it than I can reasonably recall. A lovely amber pour with a nice moderate head. Gorgeous notes of sweet malt and hops with a very distinctive yeasty quality to it that I always (whether I’m mostly projecting it or not) attribute to SS beers. Despite the prevalent malts, this one’s very light on the palate without being thin. Fruity hops, the kind of stuff you’d expect in a stronger IPA but which give real bite and character to this lovely beer. I might not love this beer so much if I was having it today for the first time, but fuck it. arventresca (334), Greenville, North Carolina, USA Aug 23, 2008 Bottle. Pours dark amber with creamy white head. Smells earthy. Nice smooth oaky taste. Goes down easy with a beautiful aftertaste. Meshes with my palate beautifully. Good Stuff. ucusty (1871), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA Aug 18, 2008 Dark amber pour, off-white head and a small amount of spotty lace. Sweet Malty aroma. Strait forward, well balanced dominated by hops and malts.

Not wonderful, but good overall. savnac (394), Palmer, Alaska, USA Aug 10, 2008 Nice malty aroma. Amber in color with an off white head. Well balanced flavor of malt and hops. Crisp mouth feel. Very nice beer. BigBang (210), Indiana, USA Aug 9, 2008 Pours medium brown with a 2 finger head. Flavor was malts and hops - good traditional brew. Mouthfeel was somewhat thin and overall nothing really stood out here for me. Would have it again but would not search it out.
