Cloudy deep gold beer. Semi dry and crisp palate. Fresh sharp orange with a bitter edge. Subtle touch of honey. Maybe a little coriander spice. Finishes crisp and semi dry with more bitter orange. Refreshing and livens the taste buds!

Very cool, a new Kuhnhenn tick for me, thanks Mark. Pours hazy deep gold with off white head. The aroma has spicy hops, apricots, more spicy hops and yeast and sort of green fruit skins. Interesting. The taste starts with a pulse of spicy hops and spicy yeast and quickly gives way to yummy sweet caramel candy and then rolling into sweet apples slices and a sense of white wine into the finish.

Tasting at Papsø
Hazy deep blond color. The arm ahas sweetish malt, coriander, plastic, light mint. Sweet body, a bit too much vegetables avvented (wrong fermetation temperature?). The final, being a bit fruity and sweet, is pleasant. Not impressive.

Bottle 35,5 cl. Courtesy of madmitch76. Pours a cloudy golden with a small off-white head. Aroma of sweet fruit and yeast. Solid body, lots of fruit and spices with a yeasty edge. Warming alcohol in the finish. A surprisingly authentic US take on a Belgian Strong. 100410
