A red brown beer with a fine light brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of roasted bread. The flavor is very sweet though turning a bit sour in the end combined with notes of malt and fruit.

A red-brown beer with a beutiful orange-brown head. The aroam is sweet with obvious notes of Ørbæk yeast, malt, and roasted bread. The flavor is sweet - way too sweet for me - with notes of roasted bread, malt, lots of caramel, and some hops, that prickles the tongue.

A beutiful brown beer but no head. It has a nice aroma of mix of malts (I think I detect some smoked malt?) and maybe some spices too. It is a nice silky feel and a good sweet malty taste, that ends in a good bitterness.

A beutiful dark red beer with a huge light brown head. The aroma is very sweet with clear notes of brewmash, grain, straw, licorice, toffee, and the Ørbæk yeast. The flavor is sweet too - maybe a bit too sweet - with notes of toffee, caramel, roasted grain, hints of alcohol, coffee, chocolate, Ørbæk yeast, and hints of smoke. The complexity can’t totally hide the high ABV - just when You swallow, it gets a little thin and the alcohol hits you for a short while, but it soon makes it up leaving you with a long aftertaste of roasted bread. The body is very nice. A lovely easterbrew.

Bottle Burned sugary aroma with some hard edges (bitter coffee), berries. Red-black, low head. Sweet creamy body, burned coffee, nut, fruit and chocolate flavors, quite some bitterness from the roasted malts in it, but I like that (however a bit longer lagering period to wear off the edges wouldn't hurt). Bitterhop in the exit. Creamy mouthfeel, relatively lightbodied - a bit more power here would have been good. Chocolate, toffee and coffee aftertaste with a hint bittering hops.

Fairly "dark" sugary nose with colormalt edges and some acidic fruityness. Somewhat cloudy red color with a low creamy head and low carbonation. Nourishing dark and bready malts dominate, a slight touch of hops as well. This contrasts a bit with a surprisingly light body. Roasted aftertaste.
