On tap @ Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2013. A blurry light bronze colored one who a small islandy and sidesticking beige top. Light caramel sweet on the nose, concentrated fruits, the frozen kind, some pinework and traces of both gunpowder and red fruits. Enjoyable! It's above average on the carbonation, a bit like chugging soda or sparkling water with a mild oily mouthfeel. I really like the taste in this. Caramel with lots of red berries. A little dry wood touch also. Hints of alcohol in the sweet aftertaste. A really nice one! 04.05.2013
