Ungstrup (11933), Frederiksberg, Denmark Mar 18, 2004 The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel, bread, and an unrecognizable spice. The color is amber and it has a fine dense head. The flavor is malty sweet with caramel notes and bread notes and is rather dry - but it also has the same weird note that is in the aroma, is it the yeast? The body is thin for a 5.7% ABV. I must admit, that I am disappointed in this beer - Refsvindinge usually makes good beers, but this is a mistake. Papsoe (11421), Frederiksberg, Denmark Aug 22, 2005 (Bottle 33 cl) Shit, did I regret buying a whole case of this. Getting rid of it was quite a task and each and every one I offered it to got this baffled expression on their faces. <br />
Beautiful, clear amber colour, pretty fine head in spite of the low carbonation. The smell is terrible though, manure-like. Flawourwise, first you get some caramel notes, then bitterness and finally an odd, acidity. Very rustic and inharmonious - typical Refsvindinge. Was it meant to be this way? Well, brewer John probably doesn’t care - he bottles everything. 261104 yespr (8544), Copenhagen O, Denmark Nov 18, 2007 33 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a diminished off-white head. Aroma is slight metallica, breadish, mouldy, medium sweet and with a minor spice note. Flavour is medium sweet with a mild caramel malt note blending in with a solid bitterness leading into the finish with a mild metallic note and a mild spice edge. Nice. I have this strange feeling that this brew is quite similar to ale 16. joergen (6951), Frederiksberg, Denmark Dec 11, 2004 Amber colour with a low white head.
Sweet aroma with notes of grain and cress.
Strange sweet-acidic taste with notes of cress. Malty aftertaste. Almost no bitterness. MiP (6742), Flensburg, Germany Feb 11, 2007 Bottle. Clear chestnut colour, small head. The flavour has some aroma hops, good spicy ones. Unfortunately a bit thin.
