Can. A light yellow beer with a white head. The aroma has notes of citrus fruits, hops, straw, and roses. The flavor is sweet with notes of citrus fruits, hops, herbs, roses, and straw, leading to a dry finish.

Can, thx HP! Very pale, clear golden-yellow body, white head. Lovely, huge white wine aroma, I can see the licorice touch that CloakedDagger mentions, but this is very much, very obviously a citric-lychee white wine aroma. Lean, light taste, sweetish, sweet citrus notes, soft light licorice, some white wine, a creamy, white wine-like beer with light radler vibes, but not in a bad way, some lime touches, very light alcohol, somewhat hidden for 9%. I'm actually enjoying this. Probably the best Carlsberg Research Laboratory beer in the world.

Can 33 cl. Pours a clear, pale yellow with a white head. Interesting and complex aroma. Initially a faint citrusy, but if you take a deep sniff it almost turns into licorice. Rich, malty, lightly fruity. Somewhat sweet yet with plenty of balancing hops. Towards the finish you get a feeling of the alcohol. By far the best of the four Carlsberg experiments I've had so far. Very much a proper beer! 130922
