Ungstrup (14723), Frederiksberg, Denmark Oct 9, 2004 A clear orange beer with a disappearing white head. The aroma is very grass and hoppy on a sweet background. The flavor is sweet caramelic with loads of grass and hops, besides hints of alcohol. A lovely 2IPA. Thanks to Dave (Rodolita) for trading this one. Papsoe (14613), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jul 23, 2005 (Bottle 65 cl) Nice, clear amber colour with a small, white head. Lovely spicy nose - ginger? Spicy flavors with lots of sweet caramel and hops - loads of them. Pronounced alcohol - almost grappa-like. Very unusual, but very delicate. Oh, did I forget to mention, that this is quite a bitter beer also? omhper (12147), Stockholm, Sweden Feb 17, 2003 Bottled, thanks hopsrus!!
Amber coloured, little head. Huge flowery grapefruit aroma. Completely dominated by hops, despite it's full body. The maltiness however is less soft and attractive than in Three Floyds Dreadnaught.
To call the finish "bitter" would be a gross understatement... yespr (11613), Copenhagen O, Denmark Aug 7, 2008 From tap at Stone Bistro. Pours hazy orange with a lacing white head. Hoppy and mild spiced aroma. Flavour is smooth hoppy and mild spiced. Followed by a mild bitterness. Smooth fruity hops finish. Lovely! fonefan (10868), VestJylland, Denmark Sep 6, 2007 Cask gravity @ GBBF 2007, London. Clear light to medium orange color with a small, fizzy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is heavy hoppy, pine, citrus. Flavor is moderate sweet and heavy bitter with a long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is flat. oh6gdx (8794), Vasa, Finland Oct 3, 2005 Bottled. Copper colour, white small head. Hoppy aroma. Very hoppy flavour with hints of flowers and weak fruitish hints. Very dry finish and long hoppy aftertaste. joergen (8429), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jul 18, 2005 Bottled.
