(br-btl bu-lbl, at SWC, 5.5%)

hzy-gl, pale-malt, §off-flavor(diacetyl?), lacking all the funky goodness of real biere de garde.

Clear golden with a medium off white head. Aroma was yeasty and malty with hints of grain. Flavour was sweet, grainy with malty and yeasty notes. Somewhat gluey.

12 ounce bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. The aroma is sweet grains, apples and spices. The flavor is decent; smooth flavors of citrus, spices, lemon stands out. Easygoing and not a bad brew.

Bottle thanks to angryprirate06. Gold with a decent white head. Aroma is of fruit and grain. Taste is of grain and light hops.

Very light notes of fruit with this one. Refreshing and light, much like a cheap table wine. A few notes of fruit like apple and white grape are noteworthy on the aftertaste. Nothing particularly remarkable, but then again I’m not a big fan of this style.

Bottle 355ml. Poured golden orange with a slight haze and a dense, frothy, white head which was mostly diminishing. Aroma was of orange zest with floral hops, mandarin, lime juice, yeasty notes and hints of fennel seeds. Flavor was an extremely light bitterness with bready malts, oranges, lemon zest, dried pears, cinnamon, light notes of wild yeasty and a touch of grain in the finish. Light to medium bodied with medium carbonation, a creamy mouthfeel, watery texture and an average length finish.

Flaske: Lys orange let uklar øl med et lille skumhoved. Duft af malt, smagen er pilsnermalt men med et lækkert humlebid der både gør øllen drikbar og virkelig trækker ratingen op. Udmærket.
