500 ml. bottle as Wee Beast. Wild brew. Unpasteurized? Aromas of fruit, malt and wood. Very pleasant. Hazy reddish amber color with a decent beige head. Medium bodied with creamy carbonation. First taste hinted of wasabe. Weird on my part. It is darkish fruit, darkish sugar, and an underlying horseradish note - very faint, but I insist it’s there. Finishes fairly dry. Enough bitter to make a statement. Still, it’s the complexity of flavor that makes this beer excellent.

Aros Ølfest, Aarhus, DK. Bottled, 241008. Amber with small head. Aroma of bread with notes of fruit. Flavor is fruity with malt, wood, hop spices and a touch of alcohol

Orange, thin ring of foam. Bready, toasty aroma, with some tartness or sourness. Flavor is...iced tea? then some bready, crackery notes, and an odd tart finish. Some smoky, earthy notes, as well.

This is a wonderful wee heavy. It’s reddish brown with a thin, off-white head quickly shrinking to a thin ring. The aroma is sweet grapes and wine with brown bread, leaves, and fruit. The taste was a lot of grapes and fruit, with wine, leaves, some bread and hint of pepper with an earthy-leafy hoppiness and bitterness with even a hint of lemon. It’s very tasty and interesting, and highly drinkable.

Pour is a cloudy red with a small tan head. Aroma is fruit vinegar with some sweet malts. Flavor is lots of berry with some dry malts and again the vinegar. Finish leaves a sourness on the tounge. This is just ok nothing great and nothing really bad to say.
