Some have claimed that Calcifer Stroker was a bitter man. That however was never true, as he personally always favored Mild Ales, although he came from a class background very far from the origin of Milds. Calcifer was a very particular man, who favored systems and a strict order in his systems. In his professional life he was a teacher at Wolfson College in Cambridge, always favoring an after hours drink at his preferred pub "The Brisk & Brim". For years it had annoyed him that many customers simply ordered "a pint," although the pub carried several beers that came in different colors and strengths, often with fanciful names. "A pint" was such poor and unclear communication in Calcifer's opinion - a pint of what, exactly? Some beers did have a vague style designation like Bitter, Porter or Mild, but it was all quite muddled and incoherent. For the next several years Calcifer Stroker used all of his spare time to sample beers and interview brewers. And finally - with no small degree of complacency - he was ready to publish his complete style guide to beer, which took the beer world by storm. He even set up a judging system that would allow all the world's beers to be compared on equal terms in 75 styles. All of this happened when Calcifer was a fairly young man and the beer world was a stable one. It is said that the first Double IPA caused Calcifer a minor nervous breakdown. When somebody brewed a big Stout with pizza and dollar bills, he was admitted to a mental institution where he frantically tried to put the world of beer styles right again. It took 3 years before the doors to freedom would open. But when he asked for his usual pint of Mild at "The Brisk & Brim" the bartender looked at him as if he was clearly insane and instead poured something called a Dryhopped Hazy Session IPA which looked suspiciously as if it had little chunks of orange pulp in it. This became the fatal glass of beer that laid poor Calcifer Stroker in his grave. His despair at seeing his life's work of systematizing the beers of the world ruined caused his heart to break and his soul to disappear into the bottomless pit of confusion.

Shortlived small whitish rim over fully hazy lemonjuice-yellow beer. Citrussy, herbal, lunaria, nectarine; nice delicate aromas. More of the same; citrus, citric, faint diary, faint pineapple ester. Appropriate light body, medium carbonation, slick. Professional and nice: Amager. Txs to Joren for bringing!

Can. An unclear yellow-orange beer with a generous white head that lasts. Citrusy, piney and lightly resiny aroma. Not much maltyness going on. It's medium bodied, semi dry and nicely carbonated, with a gentle bitterness. Piney, citrusy and lightly tropical flavor. Still not much maltyness. Medium length finish. Nice, even though it's getting old. Refreshing and easy drinkable. 230818

330 ml can, batch #2873, from BilkaToGo, Skalborg. ABV is 4.5%. Hazy golden colour, moderate to small white head. Interesting aroma of spicy and fruity hops, notes of yellow stonefruits, pine, juniper and spruce. Light bodied as expected, citric and fizzy mouthfeel. Citric flavour, also the same elements as the aroma. The finish seems more bitter than 22 IBU. Good beer.

Totally juicy aroma, pineapple, ripe (not overripe) fruits. also the powder used to make orange juice and alka-zeltser, crisp-craft-beery-dry'ish note, oats. lots of stuff going on, overall impression from aroma is refreshing, fruity, quenchable, dry. Flavor is slightly strange, juicy, beery, full bodied, but it's like something is missing - or is it just low-bitterness and very highly easy drinkable... certanly a well tasting easy drinker, it goes down like chocolate milk.
