well integrated hops and fruit. With a copper body. Rich in hops, with a big fluffy white head. So much more creamier on tap then in bottle, not as carbonated and a lot smoother.

at flying saucer. Not as hoppy or alcoholic as bottle version, but very drinkable.

Draft at Thorups Kælder. Average size white, creamy diminishing head with good lacing. Cloudy yellow/orange body. Malt aroma of grain, straw and caramel. Hop aroma of flowers and elderberry. Medium body. Good flavor, well balanced. A good refreshing beer with a good bitter finish.

I really enjoy this in bottles, so to try it on tap is a real treat, although I wish I had them side-by-side to compare. Deep orange, big citrus oil perfume... ahhhh! Sweet caramel malt, zesty grapefruit, and a resinous, almost minty, finish. Delicious!

Poured a slightly darker Amber color. Had a perfect head and a good level of carbonation. The smell was great with a lot of hops and citrus. I was expecting a little more hops but I have been on quite an IPA binge recently so maybe I was affected by this. That said the general taste was pleasant and the beer was very drinkable.
