Bottle, shared by Papsoe. It’s an almost clear one, golden in color and with a dense, off-white head on top. Some lacings. The aroma has a fruityness and some yeast hints. Brett and a cellar touch too. Orange notes. Pleasantly carbonated, full-bodied and dry. Orange, brett, generic fruityness, some alcohol-like notes, considering the ABV I guess it’s rather some by-products from the fermentation. Long finish with fruityness, orange and brett. A very refreshing one, tasteful too. Gimme more. 110418

Bottle 75 cl. Courtesy of kristina/grassrootsvt. Pours golden with a slight haze and a creamy and rich white head leaving some lacework. Dry, Bretty nose, very fresh and flowery. Medium body with a dry fruitiness, spicy, dry yeastiness but far from overly yeast - thankfully. The finish is dry, very dry. This is almost like a fresh, young Orval. Perfectly balanced. Very well made Shaun. 170411 & 260511

Draught at Mikkeller Bar, Copenhagen
Exaggerated carbonation, that overwhelms the bartender; hazy amber color with a huge head, compact. The aroma is a mix of exotic fruits (mature mango is the more evident), and apparently there is also the whipped cream. Lean body; dry caramel and toffee flavor; the bitterness is strong, but not excessive, and the hopping brings a pleasant touch of apricot jam. The final as well is quite balanced. Good, but apparently not fresh, for an IPA.

enjoyed during 2011 RBWG pours straw yellow with a medium white head. Aroma is bubblegum, grassy malts, tart acidic notes. Flavor is mildly funky, pale grains, crackers, and a little bit of tartness finishing dry.

750ml hand bottle pours a hazy, bright yellow with a cloudy, white head. Nose is nice, floral, perfume, grass, white grapes, a little citrus. Flavor is sweet, malty but without being sugary, chalky, wheat, grass, a little chardonnay. Medium bodied, chalky finish. Well balanced and understated.
