yespr (55602) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - NOV 20, 2007
24 fl oz bottle, thanks to Carsten. Pours golden yellow to orange, clear. The white head is gone in an instant and was fizzy. Overspiced aroma or coriander. Flavour is sweet caramel, but completely drowned in coriander heavy notes. Soapy, coriander and somewhat rubber like. Not offensive but a poor imitation of a belgian triple.

Ungstrup (51395) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - FEB 12, 2005
An orange beer with a dense beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of coriander, oranges, caramel, and finally dusty hops. The flavor is strong with alcohol burning the tongue and caramel sticking in the mouth, but also notes of oranges, coriander, and mango.

Bottled. Hazy yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is lemons, apricot and dry fruits. Some slight alcoholic hints. Flavour is vanilla, strong apricot and dry fruits. Pleasantly hopped. Hides the ABV very well and has a very smooth and quite full palate. Refreshing.

Taste comprises light caramel, pinch of white pepper, candyfloss, Belgium yeast esters, tangy citric, light hopping, bubblegum. Medium + body, fine carbonation, light rising alcohol in the close.
