Ungstrup (26476) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - AUG 13, 2004
[At Fete de la Biere 2004, Lausanne] An orange beer with a fine though disappeaering white head. The aroma is very sweet with notes of caramel. The flavor is very hoppy and quite sweet, the end is dry hoppy. It is boring for the style though the body is powerful.

[Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm] Clear golden, fine head. Dominated by raisiny buttery malt. Firm with restrained sweetness and solid malty body. Grassy hops add some late bitterness. Styliosh.

CaptainCougar (7107) - Columbia, Maryland, USA - MAY 3, 2006
On tap at JPDIPSO’s during the March 25th Milwaukee gathering: Pours a clear bright golden with a nicely-lacing frothy white head. Aroma is sweet, lightly toasted, and bready with a nice noble hoppiness and lager yeast character. Body starts with a sweet pale Munich maltiness nicely balanced with earthy bittering hops and a crisp bittersweet floral finish. A nice bock.

Ughsmash (6723) - Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA - MAR 27, 2006
On tap @ JPDIPSO’s. Poured a clear medium golden with a medium cap of white head. Nose struck me as wheaty with a spicy and bready malt presence. Flavor followed suit, but added some lighter fruits, caramel, and the yeast presence became more pronounced. Very smooth and creamy with the well-balanced malts on the palate.. hint of citrusy wheat at the finish. Exceptionally drinkable... very nice.
