Cask@Charlies Bar, Copenhagen - (this most definitely is not retired) pours dark Amber reddish brown with a small white covering. Aroma and taste is sweet caramel and toffee, with a plethora of dark dried fruit, slight nutty, nice hoppy backing, happy to have tracked down this elusive "whale" :)

Cask. Nice fruity aroma. Dark chestnut colour, creamy white head. Sweetish tea-like flavour. Quite bitter flavour and aftertaste. Very malty, but balanced well by the bitterness.

[Cask at Charlie's Bar, Copenhagen] A dark nut brown beer with a fine beige head, though collapsing. The aroma is light of fruit, caramel, and nuts. The flavor is flowery (roses), fruity, and rather sweet, but with a nice grassy hoppyness, and a bitterness that balances the sweetness, and lingers on the tongue. A great flavor.

Brown-amber color. Very nice aroma, flowery, elderflower... Bitter, fresh, flowery, wonderful (delicate elderflower again). Long, persistent final.
A giant flowery bitter.
