Small shortlasting head. Aroma is very strange, frozen cola ice, ginger, pine needles, grass, sugar, caramel. Taste is very harsh, pine needle soap, ginger, frozen cola ice, eucalyptus, citrus peel, grass. Longlasting bitterness, very harsh mouthfeel. Meh!

Draft at Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2014 - Red Session. Pours clear amber with a bubbly, white head. Big herbal nose, sage or something. Lightly sweet, with notes of dried wood, dried herbs, dried berries. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Drying on the finish, with hints of perfume, flowers, more wood. So so.

Tap at CBC 2014. Beer in the glass brownish, small head. Mild sourish aroma. Starts extremely spicy with notes of some herbs, reminds me a bit of sorrel. Finish more dry, still spicy. Interesting!

On tap @ Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2014. Looks quite good this with a deep dark near glowing red amber cloudy body under a lacing big just off-white head. On the nose it's quite spiced up with all sorts of spices. Nutmeg, fruity pepper, some hay, stress, maize and someone mentioned Coca Cola ice. Spot on, Mr freeze Cola. Light oily in the mouth and it's just below on the carbonation. A mild wood acidity with sharp lemon juice and something that reminds me of rose hips. Only faint spiced with maize and nutmeg. A bit wood dry and slightly mouthdrying aftertaste with more sour fruits. I kinda liked 03.05.2014
