Comments: I don’t quite understand how such a respectable brewery pulls out such a farce… Buttery, thin lager with almost no hops nor dryness.
Ungstrup (11338), Frederiksberg, Denmark Oct 18, 2007 Bottled. A hazy orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet spicy with some artificial guarana notes. The flavor is sweet malty and spicy - especially guarana, combined with notes of straw and hoppy notes giving it a touch of flowers, before a dry bitter finish sets in. Enjoyit (1104), Vadum, Denmark Sep 29, 2007 Pale yellow of color with a small white head. An aroma with hops, notes of malt - apple notes. A flavor with hops and fruity notes, a bitter finish.
