| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 21, 2007 Hugely active carbonation lives in this hazy light amber brew. Sparkler-like head, extremely lacy. Very floral nose where fair bitterness can be expected and will be delivered. Not very complex in malts though. Foamy palate, rather farmy feel really, crushed grains feel quite fresh while very little darker grains have been used, but the ensemble feels coherent enough. Theis (3803), Denmark
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Sep 6, 2007 Bottle at ØLbaren - Thanks to Jens for the taste (so I didn’t have to buy one myself). Unclear amber/golden - white head. Fruity, apples, mould (mug), dusty, yeasty, light metallic. Not my kind of beer !!! jfm (1695), Holbæk, Denmark
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Aug 19, 2007 Bottle. Deep golden color with a white head. Bland light sweet aroma. Sweet body with a light malty and fruity pattern. Light yeasty spices. Rather boring. Miksu (2241), Jyväskylä, Finland

Dryish and phenolic flavor with vanilla, tart fruitiness and woody bitterness. chriso (4852), London, Greater London, England
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | May 27, 2007 Bottle, at Reading Beer Festival, April 2006. Golden colour. Thin white head but lots of gas action. There’s a sharpness here but it seems to be more to do with acidity than bitterness. Some Belgian style yeasty elements too. Light and quite refreshing. Mouthfeel is a touch too fizzy for my taste.
