bluevegie (2169), Perth, Australia Mar 19, 2005 The bottle presents very well although I had to try hard to get a decent sort of head whilst pouring this beer. Coppery amber coloured body with a off-white head. Some traces of lacing but hardly worth commenting about. The aroma made you take notice at least, at first I thought it was malt - bread, then I was switching to hops - fresh, pine and citrus. Taste was ok but nothing outstanding, pleasant bitterness, some caramel and butterscotch, some fruit maybe pear, medium light body and the finish hangs around in your mouth for a fair while. Garrat (1132), Suffolk, England Jan 14, 2005 From a bottle.Beaten bronze in colour,small head,some hops.Something chemical and false,not a best in my book. ThomasE (5179), Copenhagen, Denmark Dec 10, 2004 Hazy orange colour with small head. Powerfull hoppy bitterness in both aroma and flavor. Hints of caramel in the aroma. Bov (5403), Bienne, Switzerland Sep 13, 2004 clear red-amber colour, almost no foam, decent hoppy nose showing some buttery and herbal notes, light-bodied, medium at best, very bitter, the finish is dry and flowery with lot of hoppy notes BBB63 (4199), La Porte, Indiana, USA Sep 5, 2004 Bottle: Slightly hazy amber hue with little head or lace. The aroma has notes of toasted and carmalized malts, earthy yeast, and aromatic hops. The taste starts witha fruity overtone of apple and pear, caramel malts, and some notes of a nutty quality. The palate shows little depth and the taste only changes a bit as it warms up. The feel is smooth and dry. This is a beer I would like to try in cask version since the bottle seems to be "dumbed down" for export. AndersR (194), Århus, Denmark Jul 14, 2004 Clear amber color. Hoppy malty aroma. A nice balanced malty bitterness with a dry finish. A really nice bitter on a hot day. jerohen (1603), Bussum, Netherlands Jul 8, 2004 Clear orange coloured, small head. Malty aroma, bitter flavour. Typical bitter brew. Although i’m not a big fan of the style this one was quite ok. Ungstrup (14758), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jun 24, 2004 A red beer with a small beige head. The aroma is very hoppy and the flavor is very dry and hoppy. A very simple beer but OK.
