Bottled @ Aarhus beerfestival 2008. Cloudy orange color, short head. Aroma of honey, fruity, cane sugar. Sweet taste, oranges, bit dry. Like a very soft american strong ale.

Cloudy amber with a big off-white head. Excellent fruity aroma. Peach and orange dominate, along with pineapple, a little malt, and some alcohol. Sweet and malty, with plenty orange and peach. Not quite "very true to type" but a wonderful beer to sip.

A slightly hazy amber beer with a huge orange head. The aroma is sweet with notes of wood, alcohol, and over ripe fruits. The flavor is "old" as an Old Ale should be with notes of wood, over ripe fruit, oranges comes to mind, and alcohol tickling the tongue, leading to a quite heavy sweet end, from which the alcohol and wood lingers the longest. Nice.

Bottle. Medium head with medium duration. Color is hazy brown. Aroma is honey sweet. Nice mouthfeel. Taste is dominated by honey, but also malty as well. But I must say that it is too sweet for me.

(Bottle 50 cl) Hazy amber with a thick, creamy head which never collapses completely. Extremely malty with lots of sweetish caramel notes balanced out by a rather dry, sharp bitterness. Extremely chewy and full-bodied beer. 010705
