(On tap) Beautiful, clear, warm amber with a creamy, beige head leaving a pretty lacework. Fat, heavy hop aroma. Rather full-bodied with sweetish caramel notes but otherwise completely dominated by distinct aroma hops also leaving a massive bitterness. A very solid if not exactly refined IPA. 220207

Draft at the brewpub. A dark amber beer with a thick yellowish head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt, Apollo yeast, caramel, and citrus, as well as hints of butter. The flavor is rather sweet with strong notes of malt, and quite a lot of hops and citrus in the beginning, but then buttery and Apollo yeasty notes appears and grows in intensity, leading to a bitter end with a citrusy note lingering around. I don’t like the buttery notes.

Draught, 6.6% as Flakhaven Porter. Very buttery aroma. Black colour. Big stable brown head. Full flavour, quite sweet and with distinct liquorice notes. Very buttery flavour too, but almost hidden by other flavours. Could be a very nice beer without all the butter, must be infected.

Launched as the monthly (in January) brew at Apollo , Copenhagen. However, the 2007-vintage is made with the same receipt as earlier versions.
300ml draught. Served light chilled. Very dark body under a brownish head. Rather poor in aroma, but some sweet roastiness can be spotted. Sharp, dark chocolate flavour. Coarse-grainy mouthfeel (12.01.2007).

300ml on tap at Apollo. Beige head over an amber coloured body with great clarity. Spicy and fruity in aroma. Growing yuletide flavours of almond, anise and marzipan. Hints of yeast and alcohol shine through towards the end. Too sweet for more than one glass at the time (12.01.2007).

Draught at the brewpub; brewed with Tonka beans
Golden color. The Tonka beans leave no clear trace, but some bread aroma. Medium body, quite good malt, in the background there is some good hop (German style) and some special taste (between nuts and fruits) that I admit being the Tonka-stuff. Original, good and interesting.

Black color; thin creamy head. Light aroma of caramel and malt, no liquorice. Round mouthfeel, with residual sweetness, some roasted malt and the artificial, sweet, liquorice candy stick. Odd. Why brewing such stuff?
