Small cream-coloured rim over foxy dark orange beer. Smells fruity - and alcoholic, bizarre for its 5%. Fruitsyrup, higher alcohols, raisins, oxydized hops. And very suggesting very sweet. Bitter, old cookies, oxydation. Copper/metallic bitterness. Fruity notes all hidden in the background. Medium bodied, bit slick, medium carbonation. Long lasting metallic bitterness. Weird. An unpleasant bitterness, the mango most prominent in the colour of the almost absent head, and oxydation all over the place more than 1 year off the BBD. Weird.

33 cl. bottle shared with Hilde @ home, bought @ Kulenborgse Bierhandel.
Clear brown with no head. Hint of mango in the aroma along with some caramel and cardboard. Taste is strangely bitter and heavily oxidized. Finish is bitter as well. This is a no from me.
