Pale yellow with a small white head. Any beer aroma is overpowered by licorice and anise. Spicy sweet anise flavour

Bottled@Delirium café, Gothenburg in 2006. Pretending to be Egyptian yes. Hazy yellow colour with mediumsized white head. Aroma is pretty much a witbier, but also has a bunch of red berries and even some raisinlike sweetness. Flavour has quite much of the same, along with yeast. A rather different witbier...

33cl bottle @ Supermarket, Flensburg. Pours hazy yellow with a white foam. Liquorice & anis all over. Quite weird & very spicy. Soft body, smooth & medium filling. Citrussy. Ok product but not really my thing. One dimensional!

Bottled at Delirium Café on December 3, 2005.Nice color, but the scent is really different. Is it dates in it? Taste is very sweet and different also. Not bad, but "strange".

(Bottle 33 cl) Are we really to believe that this was brewed from an ancient, Egyptian recipe? Pale orange colour with big lumps of yeast. Decent head and lots of carbonation. Apparently brewed with figs and dates which I have difficilties sensing. Slightly sour notes in the finish. 130502

The flavor is dominated by citrus notes. The color is a hazy orange and it has a fine though collapsing head. The flavor is very un-beer-like; dominatid by sour and lemon notes. It ends on a lemony prickling. An interesting beer in the light, that it tries to emulate an old Egyptian brewing method - but I must confess that the product development in the last 4000 years concerning beer has rendered a better product.

Apparently this is some vague attempt at an ancient Egyptian style of beer, but taking it far less seriously than either Scottish & Newcastle or Dogfish Head. It is more of a witbier than anything else, with a billowy head, fine malt flavours, a gentle spiciness, and a herbal dry, yeasty, alcoholy finish.
