(On tap) Very dark amber colour, slightly hazy with a small, fine, creamy, beige coloured head. Lightly roasted, caramelish nose. Lightly sweet caramel notes in the flavour with a solid malty feel and some hints of nuts. Medium body. Actually a rather decent brew with the typical rustic Apollo feel. And then unfortunately also the usual harsh and not so pleasant Apollo bittering hops. 060905

An unclear very dark amber, almost brown, beer with a fine but collapsing head. The aroma is lovely malty sweet with notes of caramel and münchner malts. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel and toasted bread. It ends on a soft note without hop bitterness, but instead som bitterness from the roasted malt. The carbonization prickles the tongue. The body is somewhat light. The aroma, flavor, and body doesn’t fit well together. It is too simple - but the Århus version is better than the Copenhagen one - maybe the water in Århus is better for a Wienna style? I gave the Copenhagen version 2.9
