750 ml bottle. Beautiful copper colour, good beige head. Moderate caramel malts aroma, some aromatic hops too. Clean tasting dunkel, mellow caramel malts flavour but not too sweet. Decent enough to drink, but not worth the high price.

Draught
Dark clear ruby, small tanned head. Aroma of prunes, sugar and hints of smoke. Light like unfermented sugar nose. Flavor is berry-ike more than stylish brown ale toffeish. Light aftertatse, some hoppy bitterness. Lame. (7/4/4/2/9 2.6)
Re-rated bottled
Dark nut brown color, small off-white head. Sweet nutty malty aroma. Sweetish, nutty malty with some grassy hops. Quite simple, some toasted notes in the finish. (6/3/6/3/12 3.0)

(Bottle 70 cl) Bottle #3261. Hazy, dark coppery colour. Fruity, yeasty nose. Very full-bodied with all the obvious notes of roasted malt and caramel with an almost vinous edge. Gets better sip by sip as it slowly warms.

750 ml bottle, bought in Denmark. Very pale colour, slightly hazy, large white head. Moderate but nice aroma of apples, citrus, coves and coriander. Very light bodied, thin mouthfeel. Flavour is dominated by a distinct acidity, probably provided by the sour Bramley apples, but there’s not much apple flavour beyond the acidity. Traditional witbier elements (coriander, orange peel) are very subdued. Minimal hops. Refreshing, but no masterpiece. Does not live up to its price.

Unclear yellow, surprisingly little head for a wheat. Fresh aroma with some lemon. Very unremarkable flavour, some sweetness, some acidity. Would be a good thirst killer if it wasn’t priced like an exclusive after-dinner beer...

Bottle. Spicy, yeasty aroma - like Belgian yeast. Copper colour, small creamy head. Coriander, yeast flavour and aftertaste. Typically blonde. Citrusy bitterness in aftertaste. Quite high carbonation.

Dark golden with no head. Sweat flowery malt aroma with a hint of alcohol. Flavour of alcohol with a hint of sweet malts - like a really cheap trong lager, except it isn’t cheap. Hello Saaz Blonde, goodbye Saaz Blonde :(

Bottle. Not much aroma to speak of. Slightly hazy, pale yellow colour. Flavour is very mild with a hint of clove. Refreshing but boring.
