Complex sake like flavors with malt sweet notes. Hints of strawberries in the nose and palate. An intriguing mix of sake, malt , and bitter notes in the finish.

330ml bottle. Hazy amber-orange colour with a decent white head. Aroma is grainy, rice, yeast, fruit. Taste is a bit of everything, grain, rice, malt, sweet fruit, touch of alcohol as well. Interesting beer.

Bottle from Beers’n’more. An unusual beer with special ingredients indeed. Yeast forward, sake, fruity and sweet. Reddish color. Nice!

Orange color with white head. Aroma is grains and hops, some sweeter fruits, maybe strawberries. Taste is grains and fruits again. A bit spicy. Not bad.

Pours a hazy amber red color, topped with a medium sized and lasting off-white head, creamy. Grainy nose, sweet tones with a bit of grassy hops more noticeable later on. Taste is sweet, malty quite a lot. Very grainy with gentle bitterness. Not bad, though nothing special.

Dark copper with little head but moderate carbonation. Medium bodied and creamy. Caramel malt flavor upfront, clean finish. Unremarkable.

33 cl. bottle at Ferment Restaurant, Cph. Slightly hazy amber colour with a golden tint. Sweet aroma with herbal notes, bread, some tart berries notes, caramel and spicy hints. Taste is light bitter-herbal. Medium body with a creamy texture and a soft carbonation. Finishes dry and slightly bitter with herbal-spicy notes. A strange one. Goes well with the umami flavoured Asian food.
