(33 cl bottle). Orange colour, slightly hazy, moderate head. Moderate aroma of malts, nuts, honey and flowery hops. Honey is surprisingly subdued in aroma and flavour - this is definitely a beer, not a mead. However, honey adds a moderate sweetness to the flavour of a beer otherwise dominated by plentiful hops. Lagerish mouthfeel, a bit too carbonated for my taste. Bitter-sweet finish, bitter aftertaste. Not 100% well balanced in my book, but still a decent beer.

0.33cl BottleHoneyish, flowery and grassy aroma. Hazy orange amber, lowish carbonation and head. Belgian golden ale roots are evident in the flavor, fruity (apples,kiwis), spicy and a little bit belgian yeast funk (miniscule bandaid), honeyish notes detectable in the background. Exits nicely on grass and pine needles. Complex brew. Unexpectedly full body. Soft mouthfeel. I was sceptical when I saw the price (3.7 euros for 33cl), but all in all it was well worth it.

A hazy orange beer with a beutiful light brown head. The aroma is of fruit, wood, honey, and hops. The flavor is light yet powerful, it contains notes of honey and wood and ends on a nice hoppy dryness. This is a very nice honey beer, since the sweetness of honey is not present at all - only the aromas and flavors.

Hazy golden color; creamy head. Nice aroma, with some hop. Quite bitter and with a residual sweetness, all along, to the final, but quite poor hop character; just sweet caramel feeling.

Hazy amber color; huge head. Real honey aroma, strong and nice; flowery, mixed with a delicate hop. The sweetness is not too much, balanced, malty, with an interesting hoppiness, aromatic. Very well brewed!

Sampled draught at Dansk Ølfestival.
Hazy, deep golden. Distinct honey aroma. Sweet, but not at all cloying. Soft and near full bodied with gentle mouthfeel. Notes of tobacco and pleasant late bitterness. Complex and well balanced.

The aroma is light sweet with notes of oranges and other fruits. The beer has an unclear orange color and a small fast disappearing head. The flavor is a very nice sweetness from a good maltblend. It has a softness to it. In the middle it turns a little thin but end on a very nice bitterness. A really nice beer - better than the 80sh.

Hazy red color. Light malt aroma. Quite sweet and malty, probably missing a roasted malt character for being a Scottish Ale, and also missing some more hop.

Mahogany colour. Vague peat aroma. Low hop rate and very malt accented, yet light bodied. Dominated by a velvetty soft fine malt flavour. Woody finish with very low bitterness.
