Hazy amber color. Very grassy hop aroma. Quite malty, a bit of hoppy fruitness, strongly hopped but still mellow. Excellent.

[Cask at Charlie’s Bar, Copenhagen] A hazy orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is flowery hoppy with slight notes of lemon. The flavor is sweet and very hoppy combined with citrus and a slight sticky toffee note.
