<i>Comments:</i> Pleasantly well-put if fizzy, strong sour bread, sourdough flavours. Floral and light-bodied, but also sharply zesty/lemony. Original and successful.
Ungstrup (11692), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 1, 2007 Bottled. An unclear golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of straw - and so is the flavor. I find it boring. larsniclas (3079), Gothenburg, Sweden Oct 27, 2007 <i>Sampled at SBWF, 2007.</i>
Golden with a bubbly, white head.
Dry, floury aroma with loads of diacetyl. Somewhat smoked in the flavour. rlgk (3239), Motala, Sweden Oct 3, 2007 (Stockholm Beer Festival 2007) Draught. Golden color, white head. Malty diacetyl aroma, creamy, grassy and with vanilla notes. Malty flavor, grassy, diacetyl notes, some bread. Quite mild finish.
