There is absolutely no aroma, and not a lot of flavor. Suck on a gym sock. Ungstrup (14760), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 19, 2007 Bottled. A hazy red-brown beer with a huge fluffy brown head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of cocoa and chocolate. The flavor is sweet and very roasted, which also lends it a slight acidity, combined with strong notes of chocolate. The alcohol burns slightly in the mouth. Papsoe (14642), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 19, 2007 (Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of boboski. Slightly hazy reddish brown with a tall and dense, shaving foam style off-white head leaving a rich lacework. Lightly vinous, roasted malt aroma. Medium body with sweet, roasted - hard roasted - malt accents. Some fruitiness before a dry finish.
