500ml bottle. Slighty cloudy red red amber with average frothy moderately lacing off-white head. Tart and fruity aroma, a touch of leather. Taste has tart, dry and fruity notes, prickling carbonation supports acidic fruit notes.

Bottle, bottled 15.04.10. Pours a reddish amber, with a light head. Quite sweet aroma, with notes of berries and oak barrels. Lively carbonation, and a full body. Flavour is sharp citrus, and an oaky malt. A somewhat disappointing finish of fruits, with a light sourness.

0.5l bottle. This is a grumzy unclear deep red beer with a fingersize off-white with a red-hued fluffy head. Nose is surprisingly sweet with grass, berries and yeast. Quite lively carbonated and a oily body. Tastes light berries-sour (cowberries) with sugar, and hints of wood. It all ends dry and somewhat sour. Not the best from Haandbryggeriet, but a nice experiment.

Bottle from Bier Koning. Cloudy amber beer. Small pale tan head. Crisp dry palate. Slightly tart fruit tasting vaguely like a cross between cherry, tangerine and a splash of lemon. Nice! It’s backed by a very slightly smoky pale malt. Dry palate, a bit too much so. Would have really preferred an unsmoked pale malt base to let those ’rare’ crowberries shine through! :)
