[Cask at GBBF 2004] An orange beer with a small white head. The aroma is sweet grassy, while the flavor is sweet and like a field of grass in summer time - from a lovely hop.

Black beer with a tiny light brown head. Roast malt aroma with licorice and leather. Deep dry flavour, roast with some tar and mud and maybe a little sour note. A lighter cousin of the Danish "Limfjordsporter" (which is half porter, half strong stout)? That’s the highest acclaim a stout can get from me.

Dark brown, almost opaque. Nice creamy expresso head. Good chocolaty and roasted aroma. Roasted malts, cold coffee, tobacco and some mineral water - making mouthfeel a bit hard. Long hoppy aftertaste. Excellent, easy-to-drink -stout.

Cask. Sour aroma. Sour, fruity and slightly harsh bitter flavour. A little watery. Like very bitter tea (not good).

Cask. Black colour, small creamy head. Slightly sweet, winegummy, salty, fruity flavour. Not a typical porter, reminds me of a hvidtøl (but I dont rate to style). imdownthepub is right that the name is misleading.
