Red amber with a moderate head. The flavour has initial notes of licorice and then some sweetness, vanilla and caramel. The bitterness is moderate and the finish is short. Not a beer that leaves a great impression...

[Cask at Charlie’s Bar, Copenhagen] A hazy red beer with a small orange head. The aroma is sweet with notes of berries and alcohol. The flavor is sweet again with berries being most dominant, leading to a dry woody end. It has a good body.
