COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Den traditionelle saison var en tørstslukker, som landarbejderne drak under det hårde høstarbejde. Der er ikke så mange landarbejdere mere, men denne øl er også velegnet til at køle kroppen med når man hænger haveredskaberne på plads i garagen efter endt arbejde; derfor navnet! Brygget af pilsnermalt, carapils, umaltet hvede og byg, sukker, Whitbread & East Kent Goldings humle samt belgisk gær. Upasteuriseret, ufiltreret, håndtappet og eftergæret i flasken. English: Traditionally a saison was a beer brewed for the refreshment of the field workers during harvest. These days there are not that many field workers left, but this beer is equally suited for refreshment and mental restoration when, after a few hours hard work in the garden, you put your garden tools back in place in the garage; hence the name of the beer. Brewed from Pilsner malt, carapils, flaked barley, flaked wheat, sugar, Whitbread & East Kent Goldings hops and Belgian yeast. Unpasteurized, unfilterede, bottled by hand and bottleconditioned.

yngwie (8700) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - MAR 7, 2011
Bottle. It pours a hazy golden body and a small, dense off-white head. Milky, rubbery nose with chalk, chicken farm and solvent. Still not all horrible. The flavor is better, slightly sweet and with fruityness. But there’s also the same chalky, rubbbery badness found in the aroma. Some pleasant bitterness towards the end. Medium body. Sure off, but drinkable. 101126

NosirIwont (1535) - Aalborg Vestby, DENMARK - FEB 19, 2011
Bottle. Gusher. Pours a murky yellow with a big white head. Sweetish, yeast, fruity aroma. Tart. Wheat-like. Flavour is tart with notes of fruit, citrus and a slight perfume touch. Finish is bitter, a bit smoked, and fresh wheat-like notes. Alcohol and fruity notes as it warms. Too much carbonation. 25.09.10.

Unclear yellow/orange pour, large white head. Aroma has sweetness, berries, peat, smoke, yeast, hints of tar. Taste is yeasty, has faint smoke, little malty, sourness. Overly carbonated, it explodes in the mouth leaving only foam and no liquids. ish

MPA (709) - Amager (form. Nørrebro&Aalborg), DENMARK - JUL 28, 2010
Bottle. Slightly unclear golden with huge, foamy off white head. Aroma of yeast, earth, spices, apples, lemon and an exciting good time savouring this. Ummm...spicy, earthy, dry fruitiness with a pleasant bitter finish. Small notes of sweet honey. This is just made for enjoyment at a regular interval (= advanced session beer). Nice work, guys!
