Feb 3, 2008 This is a fine ale indeed! It pours a lovely cloudy golden color (I have a soft spot for cloudy beer) and it has a really nice, large off-white head. The flavor is sweet, but with a lot of hops. It has a very good body to it. I will enjoy having this one again

Jan 31, 2008 Hazed brown with a big ass head. Herbal to minty lightly sweet hops. Perhaps slightly skunked? Light carbonated body with small bubbles. Lighter and drier than I thought from the nose. A bit spicy even! A bit skunked? Some alcohol lingering. Saaz/hallertaur sort of hops maybe? Very peppery.

Jan 30, 2008 Bottle, bought @ Vinspecialisten, Kolding Storcenter.
Pours a hazy yellow with a splash of orange. The head is white and frothy with rather big bubbles - all sticking nicely to my glass. Aroma is hoppy, grassy and has some caramel and light yeasiness. Nice mouthfeel with little bubbles dancing nicely on my tongue. Flavour is well bitter, some caramel and biscuit sweetness behind it. Very dry finish with a light yeast presence. The hops are grassy and floral and really nice.

Jan 26, 2008 330ml Bottle: Aroma is sweet and a little spicy. Smells of grassy hops, caramel malts, and a bit of spices. Poured golden/amber/orange in color with a large off-white head that diminished but lasted throughout. Excellent lacing. Cloudy. Sparkling. Full of large particles. Medium sweet flavor. Tastes of caramel malts, Belgian yeast, and some fruit and floral hops. Medium body. Sticky texture. Average carbonation. Sweet, yeasty finish. Not as hoppy as anticipated.

Jan 23, 2008 Updated: Jul 8, 2008Bottle from bottle trek. Tulip glass. A nice crisp beer. Refreshing but slightly lacking for me. I didn’t get much aroma from it, but the flavor was crisp and refreshing.

Jan 15, 2008 Substantial and swirling in the glass. Earthy, rustic aromas of grains, hay, sweet grass and fresh hops. Tastes equally authentic and artisanal. A very drinkable, enjoyable strong ale that balances its alcohol with the naturalness of the ingredients to eliminate any astringency or alcoholic bite. Well made.

Jan 15, 2008 Nose of herbs, spices and malt. Pours a hazy orange coloured beer. Taste is full with a spiciness. Some minierality too giving a very dry character. Not bad at all.
