Bottle @ America Strikes Back, Ulfborg. A persistent gusher. Pours cloudy rich straw with neverending airy white head. Clear aroma of fruit, malt and alcohol, with notes of hops. Sweetish, fruity flavour, with notes of hops and flowers. Sweetish aftertaste. Not quite an Amber Ale. More like a Tripel. OK, still.

Bottle, 75cl. A lightly hazy golden beer topped by a small, dense, white head. Some wet cardbord and cooked vegetables in the aroma, as well as fruityness and a little maltyness. Notes of burnt plastic and nail polish remover. Sweet, fruity flavor with cooked vegetables, malty hints and a faint bitterness. Medium body and soft carbonation. Short finish with the same brewing errors as in the initial flavor. Although there’s bad things going on here, it’s sort of drinkable. Sort of. And there’s not much amberish going on. 140509
