saxo (3558), Højbjerg, Aarhus, Denmark Nov 18, 2009 Bottle. Nice head with good duration. Color is amber. Aroma and taste are rich and bitter hops, flowers and malt. Light fruity with a long bitter finish. harrisoni (6770), Ashford, Kent, England Nov 15, 2009 Bottle at post Borefts BF 09 tasting. Gold, clear, hoppy tripel with good ornage/satsuma fruit. Bit of tea flavour, but rest is really good. Peach comes through. Just some tea lowers it for me. Maybe a bit more on finish. Good hops though. austone (1036), Turku; Pori, Finland Nov 14, 2009 33cl bottle. Clear copper, firm pale head. Straightforward piney nose, little mango and grapefruit, faint toffee malts. Flavor is resiny and citric IPA-hopping, dry, neutral and minimal malt base. Light body with strong carbonation, no yeastiness on the palate. I was commented this tastes like pine-flavored mineral water. That might be close, but it sure is tasty, I just wish their stronger versions would be this crisp. madsberg (4888), Søborg, Denmark Nov 13, 2009 Bottled. Dark golden coloured. Unclear. Fluffy off whitehead. Aroma of fruits, spice, pine and sweetness. Quite dense. Flowers, pine, herbs and light spice in the aroma. Medium to full bodied. Dry. Has a dense bitterness in the end. kappldav123 (1815), Markkleeberg, Germany Nov 12, 2009 Thanks to yespr for this one. The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Starts very hoppy and fresh, modest sweet, a bit flowery-grasy. Intense hoppy notes till the end, reminds me very much of an IPA. Very drinkable, well balanced finish. Really good! thewolf (5714), Kolding, Denmark Nov 12, 2009 Bottle, bought @ Ølbutikken, Cph.
Pours wonderful clear golden with a fine, big, frothy, off-white head. Aroma is lovely hoppy. Citrus, grapefruit, very piney. Low carbonation, fine dry mouthfeel. Flavour is super crisp, lovely hoppy. Super piney. Fine malty base. The aftertaste is wonderful. Nice. liinis (709), Helsinki, Finland Nov 11, 2009 Pikkulintu Helsinki. Lemony and bitter, very bitter in the end too. quite nice, but a smaller portion would have been ok Lalli (156), Helsinki, Finland Nov 11, 2009 0,33 l bottle. Nice deep golden color, white head. Nose is refrehing and hoppy. Flavor is also rather strong in dry hops, some fruits are notable as well. Very bitter aftertaste. Quite enjoyable.
