Canned@Zinc, Vaasa. Hazy orangeish golden colour with a mediumsized white foamy head. Aroma is citrus, some oaty and mild biscuity tones. Flavour pretty much follows the same pattern. Drinkable, but nothing that special.

Bottle shared at tasting. A bit unclear clear orange color, average to medium sized a bit fluffy white head. Aroma and flavor are moderately malty, leaves, wet leaves, dusty. Meh. Not good. Actually quite bad, especially for Mikkeller standards.

--Bottled. -- Black, almost no head. Intense bourbon aroma. Sweet with full body and dense, rounded mouthfeel. Chocolate mud cake drenched in bourbon. The alcohol takes the edge of the cakeyness, lending it a brandy like head to counter the plump chocolate cake. Intensely warming quite bitter finish.

Can: Poured a slightly hazy golden color ale with a white medium size foamy head with OK retention and light lacing. Aroma of tart notes with some lemony notes and light funky ester. Taste is also a mix of funky ester with some dominant lemony notes and a tart finish. Body is about average with good carbonation. Refreshing sour with nice lemon notes.
