Bottle, 5.5%. Clear, warm copper colour. Big, stable white head. Sweetish grain flavour. Low to medium bitterness. Rather boring.

Draught at Byens Kro. Clear orange - white head. Very thin. Malty, bread, caramel, butter, some unpleasant bitterness. Not good.

Copper lager with a crisp, firm maltiness.

Bottle. A clear, golden beer with a nice white head leaving lacings. Quite grainy on the nose, but for once in a pleasant way. Caramel too, but the aroma is a bit one-dimentional. Grainy and malty flavor with some caramel and some fruityness. Low on bitterness. Medium body and a finish with grains and caramel. A nice and refreshing beer, but too grainy and one-dimentional. (080708)

Clear golden with medium white head. Sweet malty aroma with grainy notes. Sweet malty flavour with caramel and grainy hints. Ends sweet.

Bottle. Clear amber colour with a big mostly lasting white head. Malty, bready and hoppy aroma. Sweet caramellic, malty and hoppy flavor. Malty and slightly dry hoppy aftertaste. Good beer!

Bottled (Beerangel, BB 02/2010). Pale copper color, good off-white head, lace. Metal, ash, clover, straw, grass and caramel in the nose - when warms up: barnyard. Crispish carbonation. Ryeish-caramelly malty, vague grassy-flowery hops. Only some metal. Bitter-harsh aftertaste. Biscuity. Unorthodox German Vienna (closer to hoppy Märzen), but not the most balanced one. Finish is also a bit thin for 5.5% German brew.

Bottle, bought @ METRO, Kolding.
Pours clear golden with a nice, creamy, off-white head. Fine, light lacings. Aroma is rather grainy, light hay and some sweet, unfermented malts. Light carbonation, fine dry mouthfeel. Flavour is light sugary, bready malts. The finish is fine and hoppy with grass, hay and a little pine. Still too sweet, though.

bought 17oct. 2008 el corte ingles, palma, rated mar 31 2009. best before 3-jun-2009. clear yellow, small thick white head. hoppy, but also a bit earthy aroma. flavor is a bit alcoholic, sweet and dark caramelly. reminds me of a grolsch i once tasted that was few months after best before date. ends sweet. i’ll have to rerate a fresh sample, as this bottleed one was not tasting good, i think it aged badly or have had too much heat at some point.

Dark golden with a nice head and aroma with notes of malt and hops. The flavour is slightly sweet with notes of caramel, a moderate bitterness and a slightly dry finish. Well and that’s about it.... 1548
