Nice rich golden color, with a fine white head. Good lacing. Fresh fruity and herbal/mild citric hoppy aroma. Well balanced hoppy, fruity and malty taste. Lovely thirst quencher. Good session ale.

Boks fra Kvickly på Nørrebro: farge og skum som seg hør og bør for en esb. Lett blomsterpreget aroma og smak som gjør den lett over drøvelen. Fin pøseøl, mye bedre enn sip (standard industripøs).

0,5L can. Pours nice clear amber with big white head. The head stays..Aroma is metallic and caramel. Taste follows the nose and adds some bitterness. Finish is decent bitter, but also very metallic. Overall: not really good, not good at all.

Can from Super Brugsen, CPH - amber pour, small head that dissipates pretty quickly. Toasty malty, some caramel, toffee,syrup, bitter finish. Ok.

5.2% ABV Bottle: BBD 28 Sep 2013, poured into a UK pint sleeve some 6 days after that date. Looks lovely, a true amber hue to it’s body: the crown a full, deep blanket of off-white foam. Malty and fruity nose, those aromas carry on into the taste nicely. Semi-sweet and full of malty molasses that sweep the hop content under the surface throughout the pint, toffee, caramel and biscuity notes fill your senses and I actually enjoyed it more than the cask version, which is very unusual for me.

500 ml can. Clear deep golden body with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma is moderate fruity with malt, pretty straight forward. Flavor is as expected from aroma mild malt and some fruitiness, moderate bitterness. A rather uninspired bitter, drinkable but frankly not far away from a lager in flavor.

Can. Pours slightly hazy light copper brown. Clear aroma of hop and fruit. Sweetish taste of malt, hop, and caramel. Slightly bitter aftertaste. A little watery but ok.

50cl can from SuperBrugsen. Pours clear amber with a frothy off-white head. Aroma of malt and caramel with some hops. Lightly bitter finish. Not bad, quite pleasant.
