Small yellowish beige head. Amber body. Milky resiny papery aroma with malty honey straw notes. Dry floral caramelly papery taste with resiny strawy notes. Mid-bodied. Dry roasty peachy wooden alcohol aftertaste with grassy strawy lingering notes. Nice and highly drinkable. (0.65l bottle, Ølbutikken, Copenhagen.)

22oz bottle pours a hazy, burnt orange with a frothy, off white head. Nice aroma of noble hops, citrus rind, earthy. Flavor is sweet, orange rind, a little soap, caramel, a little cracker. Medium bodied, soapy finish. An ESB? I don’t think so, IPA territory for sure.

Bottle at Struise School courtesy of Urbain. Deep amber colour lasting beige head. Some fresh curshed amlt aroma. Yes it has more fresh toasty malt. Yes some hops. Yes a bitter. Just lacks something. But as an American Session ale its very good. Could drink a lot of it. Well 3 pints. Decent.

Bottle, kindly shared by gunnar. Deep golden colour, moderate white head. Interesting fruity and hoppy aroma, hints of marmalade and oak, some vinous notes too. Hoppy flavour, good bitterness, moderate malty sweetness, hints of oak.

Courtesy of sebletitje. It pours copper with dirty off white head. The aroma has pleasing notes of citrus to pine resin to orange cream sherbet to spicy hops. The taste has firm orange notes, a hint of heavy cream, grapefruit, pine hop resin and some spicy hops followed by a mild earthy note mixing with a touch of malts creating a pleasing and dry black tea sensation to go along with the rest of the flavor.

cuivre, blanche pas mal de citron se dégage à l’arôme, en ligne avec le style, léger arôme de malt caramel et de biscuit. au goût, me rappelle des citron style keylime, beaucoup de note fleurs et pamplemousse, avec encore qcq éléments de malt caramel, le citron et citronnelle reste présent tout au long de la dégustation et ajoute une note légèrement amer. Pas mal pour un style dont je ne raffole pas trop.

Big bottle courtesy of Mikkel, enormous thanks!Slightly hazy golden-amber body, a little darker than average, big white head that went away at a slow pace. Soft sweet malty nose mixing with peachy notes. Peachy-orangey mostly malty sweet taste, not much bitterness. A little sticky/heavy but not too much. Notes of ice tea. Bit peppery/dusty. A nice soft drinker, that’s actually warming.

Hazy amber with a lasting off-white head. Aroma of bread and biscuit, with resinous and grassy hops and a certain note of tea - husky tannins? Malty flavour with orange peel and grassy hops. Bitter finish.
