MiP (4486), Flensburg, Germany May 11, 2008 Bottle, 10.5%. Spicy, citric aroma. The flavour is quite yeasty. The alcohol is quite apparant in the flavour and aftertaste. There is a strange plasticky bitterness in the aftertaste somehow. Must be from the jenever. yespr (4476), Copenhagen O, Denmark May 2, 2008 33 cL bottle. Pours hazy brown with a huge off-white head. Wineous fruity and yeasty spiced aroma. Sweet fruity flavour. Light yeasty note. Light alcohol bite towards the finish. Lingering yeasty and caramel malt finish. Beer blended with whiskey, no wonder it is alcohol dense. bb (1902), Martinez, California, USA Apr 25, 2008 Draft. Golden beer with an off-white head. Light yeasty, light malt aroma. Yeasty, light malt flavor with light spice and light fruity esters. Medium body. Caramel lingers with light yeast and very light playdough. Belgisk_Olklub (174), Viby J, Denmark Apr 15, 2008 Bottle. Huge, crwamy, off-white lasting head with good lacing.Heavy lalt aroma of grain, bread and caramel. Average hops aroma of flowers. heavy in alcohol. Full body, creamy texture soft carbonation and a bitter-metallic finish. The flavor has an average duration, is moderate/heavy sweet and light/moderate bitter. hughie (1914), Bedford, England Apr 9, 2008 Copper amber with a large white head and hazy masses of floating debris. Rarely have I seen such an ugly beer. It gets a rare 1 for appearance. The aroma is much more promising: honey malt, yeast and alcohol are a heady combination. The taste has sweetness, sour alcohol, dark fruits and a lovely rather basic leathery taste. There’s a little bitterness, but the main impression is malt.
