An orange beer with a disappearing white head. The aroma is sweet malty with some metallic notes from the alcohol, and so is the flavor too, with slight notes of peach.

(Can 56,8 cl) Beautiful amber colour with a creamy, off-white head. Aroma of hops and alcohol. Very potent body with lots of alcohol and a rather sharp, hoppy finish. Looks great but has a flavour of your typical Nordic Malt Liquor. 221005

Bottled. Copper coloured, small bubbly brown head. Sweet alcohol, malt and weak caramellish notes in aroma. Strong malty flavour with alcohol growing in finish. Very bitterish overall, and a bit hard carbonation.

Thisted tasting. It is dark amber and the head is creamy. The aroma has notes of roasted malt and syrup. The flavour has sweetness and notes of roasted malt, caramel, light syrup, fruit and the alcohol gives a spicy feel.
