Bragesnak (1335), Aarhus, Denmark May 2, 2008 From Superbrugsen, Aarhus, DK.
Bottled.
Caramel malt and the ususal Svaneke sweetness. Fruit notes and OK bitterness BeerBiker (1209), Odense, Denmark Sep 18, 2007 [Sampled in 2005.] For sure this is a Svaneke, no doubt. The yest tells it. This is different. Is has some porter-taste, which must be the remarkable note for this brew! yespr (6889), Copenhagen O, Denmark Aug 4, 2007 50 cL bottle, tasted both in 2005 and again 2007 (rather a bit past BBD). Pours unclear brown/amber with a small off-white head. Caramel and slight roasted aroma. Sweet flavour of caramel and roasted malt. Clear Svaneke yeast flavour, which seems rather gone in the other and new brews from Svaneke. Good bitterness in the finish. Reminds me a bit of Stormands øl. fonefan (4850), Ulfborg, Denmark Sep 28, 2006 Bottle. Muddy ugly brown color with big head. Very malty and with some roast caramel. Some bitterness. Papsoe (10267), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jun 29, 2006 (Bottle 50 cl) Pours a clear orangey brown with a small, off-white head. Lighly roasted malt aroma. Rather full body with accents of roasted malt and chocolate - actually a LOT of chocolate as it warms. Some honey accents also and a rather solid bitterness in the finish.Typical somewhat rustic Svaneke character, and not a very clean brew at all, but this really grows on me. 280606
