330 ml bottle, from Ølbutikken, Copenhagen. ABV is 7%. Deep golden colour, clear first, cloudy when the yeast is poured in the end. Huge white head. Lovely aroma of citrussy and resinous American hops. The flavour is medium sweet with resinous hops, a hint of orange marmalade. Quite good.

Bottled (2nd CS/ES Beer Gathering, thanks GV!). Hazy amber colour with a mediumsized off-white head. Aroma is fruity and floral along with some malty notes. Flavour is much the same. Rather pleasantly balanced Vuur & Vlam clone.

bb 09/13, if that means brewed in 09/10, it’s 9 months old
Cloudy orange-amber color, with medium sized creamy head, persistent. The Amarillo dry hopping gives a very nice aroma, exclusively citrusy first, with grapefruit, a bit more creamy and soapy later, also with cedar. Good mouthfeel, well structured by a nice caramel flavor with dark toffee notes; quite strong bitterness although well blended together, and long final; the hopping provides some fruity resins. The final is quite persistent; a bit dusty too.
Quite well balanced, although a bit dirty probably because of the Belgian yeast character that underlines this beer.

Slightly hazy dark orange colored beer. Pure grapefruit in smell and taste: fantastic. Carbonation very good and a nice medium to full body.

Keg at The Wedding. Pours cloudy gold with a rich, creamy head. Some yeast and mild sweetness hinted at in the nose. Flavor has toasty malt sweetness, grassy bitterness, light herbs. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. Sweet, lightly dry finish, fresh grass, mild yeast and sugar. Excellent.

Bottle from Beer Planet. It pours clear orange-amber, with a thick fluffy white head and moderate carbonation. The nose is sweet tangerine, orange, sweaty sock and pine. The taste is pine, resin, bread, grass, metal (probably due to the harsh carbonation), biscuit, orange, lemon and some astringency, with a bitter-grassy finish.

Bottle at Kulminator. Pours hazy amber with medium white head. Fresh floral hoppy aroma with some fruit. Short sweet flavor to start followed by hop bitterness and with flowers, grapefruit. Medium carbonation. Good balanced version of De Molen’s original.

Würzig hopfiger Antrunk, deutlich grasig. Dunkel, im Mittelteil vollmundig, ausgewogen, passend herb. Der Hopfen steigert sich zum Ende weiter und lässt bittere Noten aufsteigen, trocken, zitrusartig, weich. Im Nachgeschmack fast aromatischer als zuvor, stimmig, gut! 11/12/11/12/7/12
