(On tap) Pale amber colour with a thin, lightly creamy head. Distinct sweetness pretty much balanced by the Cascade aroma hops. Incredibly soft, smooth and lovely. Another top quality brew from Grauballe. 220505

(On tap) Very dark and almost opaque, with a very smal, very fine head. No less than six malts one of which is smoked, which you barely sense. In spite of all the malt this appears less sweet than the brewery’s Rød Mosebryg. The same First Gold hops are used, but in this brew the hops offer more resistance to the sweet malts and they leave a solid dose of bitterness. Again a splendid and harmonious brew from Grauballe. 220505

(On tap) Very dark amber colour with a very small head. Lovely aroma hops that also leave an intense bitterness all the way through. Distinct malty sweetness, but overpowered by the hops. Very warming alcohol - this indeed is a potent Barley Wine. 220505

(On tap) Comes as "Grauballe Lys Mosebryg). Hazy amber colour with a small, dense head. Rather low in CO2 and a distinct bitterness - kinda typical British characteristica. Very well-developed hop character, with a weak, underlying touch of acidity. An 70/-. 170804

(On tap) Dark orangey golden with a light, creamy head. Slightly hazy. The Tasmanian honey do add some subtle flavours but not much sweetness. Incredibly balanced. Very nice brew. 110705

Hazy nut brown, medium-sized brown head. Nutty hoppy nose with lemony dish cleanser aroma. Hoppy, dry woody, a bit buttery mouthfeel. Dry woody aftertaste.

2012-05-02, bottle, courtesy of Erik and Gitta, 7-4-6-2-12=31
Amber color; compact head. Nice English style hop aroma. Malt and cereals flavor, below expectations, caramel, strong bitterness, sturdy, a bit annoying in the end.
Confused.

Hazy dark amber color, beautiful; poor head. Simple aroma, some caramel, lightly cheesy. Medium body, dryish caramel flavor, medium-strong bitterness, light hop fruitiness and resins. Not enough exciting.
2006-09-12, draught, 7-4-7-4-15=37
The hops are a bit fruity, the body is malty without being thick; it’s well balanced

Cloudy amber-brown color. A malty example of IPA, I would say an American Ale, and of course very hoppy. Caramel, sweetness, aromatic hop… Very strong bitterness.

[At Københavnske Øldage 2005] An unclear orange beer with a huge light brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with a light fruityness where oranges are most present, combined with hints of yeast. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of oranges and a dry hoppy bitter end. All the way thru the mouthfeel is quite dry.

Draught. Slightly hoppy aroma. Hint of metal? Unclear light brown colour. Low carbonation. Flavour is bitter and astringent, bordering on harsh. Harsh aftertaste.

[At Københavnske Øldage 2005] A hazy orange beer with a small orange head. The aroma i sweet with strong notes of alcohol and oranges combined with light notes of hops. The flavor is sweet with primary notes of oranges and a good hop presence from at nice hop combination. It also has hints of alcohol - but the alcohol is pretty well hidden. The end is dry. A really nice Barley Wine - with some American inspiration with all the hops.
