Picked this up from shop in Skagen. Had this outside Frank (Camper) in campsite at Radjberg Mile, Nr Skagen 18-09-08 Pours muddy brown with off white head. The alcohol feels quit warming in the belly some light banana flavours, pleasantly yeasty, quite tropical flavours at times but more than anything its the banana that I keep coming back to.
