Muddy amber with no head or lacings (looks like a british barley wine) Sweet sugary/caramel aroma. Taste is the same with some noticeable hops. The carbonation is extremely flat & the body is very thin. Very difficult to enjoy!

Very dark copper colour with a small off-white head. Initial aroma of hoppy citrus, pine and peach. Then comes some great notes of malt and toffee. The malt also plays an important part in the flavour, adding a rich caramel flavour to the fruity sweetness and intense American hop flavour. Finishes very bitter. Excellent balance of sweet and bitter, malt and hops. The hops is what you would expect, but the use of darker and flavourful malts (munich?) makes it stand out from the average microbrew IPA.

(Draught at Plan B, Copenhagen, 3 Aug 2007) Pale yellow colour with white head. Malty nose with clean aromas of grassy hops and timothy-grass. Malty taste with slightly strained notes of grassy hops. Rather dry. Very pilsnerish in style and surprisingly good.

Bottle at RBESG 2007. Russet, tan head. Sweetish aroma. Sweet in mouth. Sultanas. Bit of coffee. Re-rate:- Exactly the same score at Chris_o birthday bash 08. Rather a good strong beer. OK malts. Bit sour. Decent.

Draft. A light yellow cider with no head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of apples, and so is the flavor, with a very slight acidity, and the body is thin. A boring cider, though it’ll only offend cider lovers, not the mainstream drinker. But I like cider - and this is supposed to be medium dry - well it’s not - it’s sweet - and I like medium dry or even drier.

25 cL from tap at Ølbaren. Pours with no head and pale yellow. Aroma is minor sweet and only vaguely of apple. Flavour is apple citric and sweet. Mild apple finish. More an apple juice than a cider quite thin. Mild to bland.

I thought I had rated this but apparently not, this is one of the beers on tap at Gæstgivergården in Allinge, Bornholm - a strange summer-refugium for artists from Copenhagen. They seem to stay here for free as long as they just give 1 or 2 performances in the evening. The owners seem to care for 4 beers: Hoegarden, 2 Cuban brews (Palma Cristal and Bucanero Fuerte) and then this from Braunstein:
Pours light yellow to orange, a bit hazy, little white head. Aroma is minimal citric hoppy with a slight spice note, malty. Flavour mild grainy, malty again with a small spicetwist. Dry hoppy finish.
I only drank this during the evenings we dined and enjoyed music from Nulle og Verdensorkesteret and Peter Sommer as I couldn’t care less for the two Cuba InBrew bottles that the fancy artists kept drinking, I assume that they must have thought they’re fashionable doing so - that made me chuckle on the inside

500 ml bottle. Clear mahogany body with a nice beige head. Light caramel malt aroma. Flavor is a bit watery, slightly sourish, malt and caramel. This beer is unbalanced.

Bottle. It pours almost clear, with some yeast in the bottom of the bottle giving it an uclear look with some micro-floaties, golden color, and a big, collapsing, white head. Leaves some lacings though. It seems the beer has been infected, the nose is mostly sour, but not intense. Yet there’s not much else to be found, but at least a little grainy note is present. The same goes for the flavor, but there is a decent bitterness as well. Medium body. The finish is fruity, slightly grainy, and with a decent bitterness. I would like to sample a bottle that’s not infected, the other ratings suggests a better beer than what I tasted. (070723)
