Bottle, shared by Myrup. Poured a hazy, golden-orange body, with a nice, creamy, beige head on top. Apple juice and pear dominates the aroma, but there’s also floral notes and some caramel. The flavor is quite fruity as well, but the apple is mostly gone, leaving more room for the pear, and some caramel sweetness as well. Creamy, medium full mouthfeel. It finished with some fruity acidity, but acidity in a positive way. Not sure about this one. I like it, but I doubt it is sessionable. (071005)

(Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of Myrup. Hazy, amber golden with a tall and lively, off-white head. Fruty, lightly vitamin-like nose. Medium body, lighly sweet floral accents - roses? The finish is dry. Quite interesting. 051007

50 cL bottle, thanks to Myrup. Pours hazy orange with dense white head. Floral and apple/pear nose. Floral flavour too. Has a rather different hops flavour. Nice mild malt base beneath. Ends mildly bitter. Different. Refreshing. I somehow get to sense the roses depicted on the label - quite floral/fruity brew.

Muddy orange with a white creamy head. Sweet caramel malty aroma. Fruityness - soft mouthfeel. Some grassy hops. Little thin palate & a bit too sweet - OK pleasant!

Bottled. Hazy nut brown, creamy head. Grassy and caramelly. Salty and boldly malty with hay-like hops and solid body. Good late bitterness. Similar to Fuller’s ESB, but perhaps a bit softer and fruitier.
