COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: En fusion af tyske og amerikanske rugøl. Rugen giver øllet en mild, krydret og fyldig smag - en øl, der pirrer smagsløgene, så man lige skal have lidt mere.

POLK (1286) - Hørning, DENMARK - AUG 31, 2011
Sweet creamy beer with an intriguing and good taste and enduring better aftertaste. The beer is not like rye bread.

Psytron (503) - Turku, FINLAND - AUG 12, 2011

TBone (9096) - Pori, FINLAND - AUG 10, 2011
Bottled 500ml (Mallaskukko, BB 02/2012)
Murky amber color, mostly vanishing white head. Berryish-caramelly, slightly ryeish aroma with boiled vegetable hints Maybe slightly tart.. Medium-bodied. Caramel, crystal malt, Dane berryish flavors, some rye and vegetables. About what to expect from Virklund.

JorisPPattyn (6426) - Antwerpen, BELGIUM - APR 30, 2011
Off-white rim over totally muddy amberish beer with a mossy sheen. Bready nose, obvious rye or other grains, rainwater. Sweet-breadish taste, caramel. Finish seems to have some diacetyl, getting more sweet. Slick, near sticky, but a nice palate all the same. Quite sweet - if you don’t mind a serious sweetness, this might actually be excellent to you.

Borup (2639) - Albertslund, DENMARK - APR 18, 2011
Bottle from Superbest Hellerup. Cloudy amber colour with an off-white head. Aroma and flavour of spice, malt, yeast, fruit and hops.
