May 21, 2009 Bottle from a kiosk in Vesterbrogade, Kbh. Shining, orangey-amber color. Dense yellowish head. A strong caramel scent up front, backed by some fruity hops with a metallic accent. Taste has a sweetish caramellish malt flavor, is medium hoppy with a faint roastedness. Mid- to light-bodied. Malty, slight bitter finish. Does not stand out, still a very drinkable one.

May 19, 2009 Bottle. Clear dark amber body with a small, off-white head. Strong malty caramel aroma with notes of husky grain and grass. The flavor is lightly to moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. Medium body with a syrupy texture and somewhat soft carbonation. Seemed to be lacking the lager characteristics Flying Dog says it has. That aside, it was a nice-enough drinker.

May 16, 2009 Bottle. Pours really nice, a brown amber and a medium white head. Aroma i nice a sweet,. . More malty than I would have thought an Amber to be. . and a lot thinner. For me overall, not a lot of flavor and a thin palate.

May 15, 2009 This poured a cloudy darker orange color with a slightly off white heaad. Aroma was a bit bland, but mainly malty but not sweet or roasted. Flavor was much the same, reminded me a lot of GL Elliot Ness but not as good.

May 15, 2009 Bottle. Amber with white head. Very smooth beer. Taste is a little hard to get. Drinkable, but not in the same league as other ambers out there. Will try more from this brewer to see whats up.

May 14, 2009 Draft...poured amber w/smallish head. A very odd tasting amber, I really couldn’t palce it. Not a lot of hops or carbonation.

May 11, 2009 Enjoyed in a pub glass from a 12 oz bottle. Pours a medium golden color. Some really nice notes come across in the nose. Initially (and still now) I thought this beer was a Vienna Lager, and therefore compared it to Great Lakes’ Eliot Ness. That being said, the Munich malt aromas are not as prevalent as those in the latter; nor is the palate as complex. The malt is followed with a balancing note of what are undoubtedly German noble-type hops. The finish is medium-dry. A great beer for spring, summer, and fall. Well done.

May 7, 2009 Updated: May 9, 2009Pours orange amber with a small off white head. Nose has masses of caramel & toffee as well as some slight citrus from the hops. Palate translates well. Slightly sweet malt pops up early with support from fruity hops. Finishes with feint sweetness. Certainly within the style, good beer.
