Commercial Description:
This beer is handbrewed with great care and using the purest water in the World. The water comes from the ice cape covering Greenland, that is around 180.000 years old and more than 3 km thick. The enourmous pressure in the middle, presses icebergs out into the many fiords. The fishermen has from their small fishing vessels chosen the smaller icebergs, that are melted and used in this beer. The beer has then been transported across the Atlantic, and hence has been on a long journey, to be enjoyed with great delight.

Pale golden/amber coloured with a thin diminishing head. Really malty and hoppy aroma with some notes of salt and shelfish. Small hints of elder. Hoppy, vanilla-ish flavour with a little citrousy tang. Good bitterness.

Bottled. Called Greenland Iced Flower if bought in Greenland. Very, very hoppy and grassy. Decent, but not great.

Bottle: Deep golden coloured, small white lacing head, fruity dark-malty nose with a distinctive amount of hops and a touch of molasses; moderate bitter-sweet flavour, light to medium bodied; bitter-sweet-dark-malty finish. O.K., pleasant, but not overwhelming..........

Bottle. Deep golden colour with a decent offwhite head. Herbal and grassy hop aroma with orange and a slight hint of wet cardboard. Starts with sweet caramel flavours, but is well hopped and ends quite dry. Not too bad.
