A brown orange ale with a thin dark moka head. In aroma, a lambic-like sour aroma with maple and vanilla notes, oaken. In mouth, a soursih ale with oak chips, lactic points, wooden barrel. A bit light and strange. Bieropholie imports, tasted Dec. 24 2010.

Cloudy orange - brown beer. Brewed with Star Anise, Black Thornberries, Maple Syrup and Herbs - a 15th Century Gruit recipe. Sharp crisp beer. An almost lemony start but with no real acidity - fruity. Just a slight hint of herbs in the sharp semi dry finish. Unique tasting beer - really tickles the taste buds.

Draught at Københavns Øldage 2009, Valby. Pours a dark golden amber color with a thin off-white head. Has a sweetish spicy herbal aroma with some light smoky hints. Sweetish spicy herbal and funky flavor. Has a sweetish fruity spicy herbal finish.

Cheers to tpd975 for sharing this one. Pours golden/orange with quickly disappearing beige head. Aroma hints of maple, some malts and herbal scents coupled with the freshness of anise. Flavor, intense berry mouthfeel and palate, some candi sugar, yeasty with some herbal notes and maple. Light spicy finish with hints of berry tartness.

Thanks to tpd975 for bringing this along. It pours rutty apricot with gold – copper hues and thin off white head. Interesting aroma with notes of spices, apricots, berries and red apple skins. The flavor has the same sort of components but with a thick viscous rich mouth feel to go along with the spices, berries, apples, sweet crystal like malts, a bit of mustiness and really no sign of herbs. This bottle was close to two years old so maybe the herb notes receded way into the background.

Another sour-like ale from the brewhouse shared with faroeviking from tap at CBF 09. Pale orange. Bubbles on the surface. Aroma of tart berries and fruits. Cherry-like taste followed by caramel malts. Dry and quite smooth on the palate. Works alright, but has not got too much excitements (Valby, 15.05.2009).

On tap at Copenhagen beer festival. Poured a dark gold, a bit cloudy. Head was off-white. Aroma had tart and hop notes. Flavor begins tart and ends sour, left a metallic taste in my mouth.
