Sweet sugary dough and perfumed nose. Hazy golden, no carb, lacing low creamy head. A bit ashen retronasal, otherwise a good balance farmflavors and hops. No alcohol detectable, very slight burn in aftertaste. Relatively light body.

PET bottle Sweet sugar and malt extract aroma with grassy overtones. Pale golden, not much carbonation. Sweet malt sirup base, some hops. Med body, flat mouthfeel. Interresting - but has an aquired taste I think.

The aroma is of oranges, peach, ginger, alcohol, and yeast (which reminds me of the yeast used by the Apollo brewery in Denmark). The color is a hazy orange and it has a small white head. The flavor is malty with notes of ginger and hints of hops, combined with a slitght sourness before a dry end sets in.

Cloudy tan colour. Estery, bubblegummy, hoppy aroma. Sweet palate. Creamy and smooth. Touch of grass, diacetyl and a good dose of minerals. Delicious, with no hint of alcohol.

Copper colour. Lack of carbonation. Aroma of caramel and toffee. Fruity hops overlay luscious toffee and bready malts. Silky smooth. Flowery and stylish. Like a cask-conditioned, hoppy doppelbock. Beautiful.

Golden with low carbonation. Foresty hop nose, with honeyish and biscuity malt notes underneath. Sweetish and smooth, with a herbal hop note underneath. Refreshing, satisfying. People who don’t "get" lagers, however, won’t "get" this.
