mikkopen (161), Oulu, Finland Dec 27, 2008 500 ml bottle. Clear reddish orange colour, thin off-white head. Fruity, malty aroma with a whiff of hops. The aroma is malty, with a slight caramel note that is quickly overcome by dry hoppiness. Simple but nice. cyrenaica (320), Milton, Ontario, Canada Dec 25, 2008 500ml bottle <br />
4.5% ABV <br />
I tried this beer on October 27, 2008 after purchsing from one of my local LCBO outlets. The beer poured a translucent light red colour with a long lasting thin tan coloured head. The aroma was freshly baked bread, some malt, and a small amount of hops. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with mild carbonation. The flavour was malty, with a little hint of both sourness and bitterness detected on the tongue.....but no discernable flavours to account for either.
SkyCop32 (286), Morlautern, Germany Dec 22, 2008 This was shared with Oldrtybastrd. This poured a light orange and a bitter hopps flavor and aroma. This is good to try but not a real thirst quencher. Kavu (80), Jyväskylä, Finland Dec 19, 2008 Pours clear amber with a soapy white head. Aroma is malty with some raisins. The flavor is quite bitter with some hops.
