Bottle shared in London - thanks! Pours clear yellow with a creamy white head. Sugary cereal aroma, a little fart. Big sweet flavor, some corn, honey. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sugary finish, cloying, syrupy, some white bread, no hops. Meh.

RBHD-samling på Fridtjofen april-15: takk til Henning F for flasken! Lett uklar gylden med kort skum. Lukter vørter og smaken har en honningpreget sødme. Lav bitterhet. Kort, sødmefylt ettersmak.

Shared bottle at RB/HD on board Fridtjofen 14.04.15. Dark golden. Diminishing white head. Aroma of roasted sugar coated nut, wort and honey. Similar, and honey sweet, taste and aftertaste. A hint of bittersweet marzipan in aftertaste.

Bottle at Atlantis Hotel, Barbados, 20th August 14. First sip is a shock, so sweet, almost like a lemonade shandy, I think there is honey, it fades and then you are left with a sickly malt liquor, not very good really
