Thanks fonefan! Amber colour, small white head. Aroma is caramel, some floral and mild earthy and bananaish tones. Flavour is caramel, some bananaish and some grainy and earthy tones. Quite much here and there. Not that lagery...

Can, 6.5%. Caramelly aroma, hint of metal. Clear greyish copper colour. Ok stable white head. The flavour is very sweet. Very sugary. That was unexpected. Bready notes, hint of metal. To begin with, I thought it would be undrinkable, but it turned out all right after all. Still much too sweet.

Can picked up from Netto and drunk at home (10/07/2024) - Dirt cheap but as rough as expected sadly, far too sweet, lots of caramel sweet malts, loads of sugar, rough and for me undrinkable. --- Beer merged from original tick of 1866 Ambr?e on 26 Mar 2025 at 12:22 - Score: 4.

44 cl can picked up at a Netto discounter (6 DKK) poured into a Dimpled mug. Slightly hazy amber colour with a medium-sized white head. Sweet aroma with caramel malts, brown sugar, harsh hoppy notes. The taste is sweet. Medium body. Sweet finish with lingering sugar. Way too sweet.

Can 44 cl. Pours a clear amber with a dense and creamy, off-white head leaving some lacework. Toffeeish nose with some Belgian esters. Medium body, sweet and caramelly - as in CLOYINGLY sweet. The beer has four different sweeteners aded. Some bittering hops but nothing that can add any sort of balance. Technically well brewed but the shitload of sugars makes it next to undrinkable. 040724
