Commercial Description:
Danish: er blandt vore første bryg og har ligget på lager i 18 måneder. Den kan sagtens gemmes i lang tid endnu, men nu kan vi ikke vente længere med at smage på den. Old Ale er brygget på 5 forskellige malte – 2 af dem er karamelmalt. Farven er kastanjebrun og den har et flot holdbart skum. Old Ale bør serveres ved en temperatur på 10- 12 grader. Det er en rigtig hyggeøl, der bør nydes i små glas – gerne vinglas så farve og skum kommer til sin ret. Old Ale kan drikkes til søde desserter, oste og i stedet for vin til f.eks. marcipankonfekt.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a clear dark amber with a beige head. Solid maltiness in the nose with a whiff of smoke. Solid malty base, smoke, wood and ashes and a distinct sweetness. Subdued bitterness. A very confusing beer that failed to impress me, and nowhere near any other "Old Ale" I’ve ever had before. 221009

Bottle at EsBF09. Caramelly aroma, alcoholic with a mild grassy hop note. Clear deep amber colour, almost red brown. No head at all. The flavour is malty and caramelly with a good alcohol note and a sweet smoke note. Sweet, but partly balanced by the alcohol and smoke.

The color is beautiful, red mahogany and the head is creamy. The aroma has notes of fruit, malt, dried fruits and light smoke. The flavor is slightly vinous and sweet with notes of dark, dried fruits, citrus, caramel and light smoke.

Bottle @ Esbjerg Festival, 2009. Pours unclear amber with a reddish hew and small sediments floating. Matured sweet vinous toffee nose. Dusty sweet citrussy flavor. Medium and smooth palate. Hoped for more. Seems a bit messy.
