I disagree with the other comment on this beer. My pint was neither cloudy nore lacking head. Instead this golden goloured ale was full of flavour and in no way gave the impression it was a 6.2%. You could probably drink it as if it were 4%. A lovely pint and I don’t usually say that about the large commercial brewers.

Cask @ Charlies, Copenhagen. Deep golden colour with a small white head. Sweet malty aroma with notes of fruit. Malty, dark fruit sweet flavor with a light dry and sweet finish.

Cask @ Charlie’s Bar, Copenhagen. Pours a clear pale amber colour with a small off-white head. Sweet malty and fruity aroma. Sweet malty slightly salty flavor with some vinous hints. Fruity and slightly sweetish finish.

Cask conditioned at Charlies. Golden colorured. Fruity aroma. Sweet fruity flavour with notes of old mature fruits. Light to medium bodied. Not really good.

Handpump. Cloudy brown, small head, small bubbles. Lots of dried fruit, prunes, apricots. Some flowery hops joining in. Warming alcohol finish. Good, but not great.
