Bottle enjoyed at the Piano Bar, DFDS Perl Seways
Golden, thick white head. Aroma of grass, pepper and herbs. Also some dust. Taste is very fruity with hints of honey, good sweetness and medium malty. Feel is not very dry. Finish has good hops, just as the name indicates. I find alot of grass and also some floral notes

Very pleasant and refreshing new Danish pilsener. Unfortunately the beer is not very interesting and just too "inoffensive". Especially the finish is disappointing considering the fairly high ABV and the name ("humlefryd" translates into something like "hops delight").

Draught. Weak citric aroma. Clear golden colour, very small head. The flavour has a good citric note with medium bitterness. Good mouthfeel.

Flaske 0,5l på DFDS "Queen of Scandinavia" mellom Oslo og København 18 Feb 10. Veldig lys gylden på farge. Høyt luftig skum som varte ei god stund. Aromaen er forsiktig humlet. Smaken er avrundet med litt frukt og antydning til malt. Søtlig bitter ettersmak.

Bottle. Pours clear golden with a frothy white head. Fruity aroma with malts and hops. Medium mouthfeel. Fruity and bitter flavour that ends up malty and dry.

(Draught at Örsted Ölbar, Copenhagen, 26 July 2008) Golden yellow colour with brief, white head. Malty nose with grassy hops and a hint of toffee. Malty, fresh taste with notes of grassy hops, tropical fruit and a balanced bitterness in the finish. Balanced sweetness, medium body. Decent and fresh beer leaning slightly in the Bohemian pilsener direction.

Bottle. Yellow colour with a white head. Aroma and flavour of hops, malt and caramel.

I like the flavor very much. The duration of the flavor is long, and a little bitter. Nice looking beer, with a neutral aroma.

Clear golden beer with a decent white head. Aroma is sweet and floral with notes of caramel, hay and light hops. Medium sweet taste with a light hop bite and notes of grain and grass. Light body with a thin texture. Finish is dry, short and crisp. Not mindblowing by any means, but a decent, refreshing lager.

Fine creamy head, pilsner yellow. Light fruity nose. medium body and length. KLight soft and fruity. very pleasant, but in no way remarkable.
