Ungstrup (14754), Frederiksberg, Denmark Mar 13, 2003 An amber beer with not much head. The aroma is sweet and malty - very nice. And so is the flavor - but maybe a bit too sweet. Papsoe (14642), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 23, 2005 (Bottle 55 cl) Light, nutty brown colour with a decent head. Nice, malty nose. Full-bodied with some - as promised - warming alcohol. Classical malty flavours with a note of nuts. More bitter than the same brewery’s Nut Brown Ale. 080401 yespr (11645), Copenhagen O, Denmark Dec 6, 2008 55 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange to amber with a huge creamy, tan and slowly diminishing head - leaving a nice lacing on the glass - clearly a 5er. Roasted caramel malty with a light breadish note. Light yeasty too. Flavour is breadish and mild metallic with a lasting yeasty impression. Mild bitterness in an otherwise smooth finish. fonefan (10868), VestJylland, Denmark Aug 3, 2006 Bottle. Clear coppery color with a thin white head. Spicy and slightly bitter nose with floral hints, hops and sweet malts. Sweet and malty taste with a slightly spicy middle and a light, floral finish. Aftertaste is slightly bitter with a touch of malt.

Oakes (8057), gone rambling, Vietnam Nov 16, 2002 Attractive bright amber; aroma of caramelly malts and the chalky yeastiness of Yorkshire squares. Similar profile with more caramel, tobacco, wood - almost a dusty attic character. It is this that, when skunked, turns into the astringent, ashy character I’ve had problems with in the past.
