From tap at Ørsted Ølbar. Pours hazy yellow with a small, lacing and creamy head. Aroma is crisp citrusy and grapefruity. Peachy and citrusy, mild orange fruity too. Fruity sweet impression. Yet clean, crisp and dry bitter finish. Lasting peachy flavoured.

Draught at Bishop’s Arms, Malmö
The color is almost black, with rare red hue; creamy head; nice lace. Very nice aroma, hoppy, floreal, with fresh elderflowers (a nice complement tot he hops), and light malt and sweat. Lean body; chocolate and roasted malt flavor; the hopping is fresh, a bit fruity, pleasant, but spoiled by the ashy feeling of the black malt, obviously increasing in the end. The final is therefore harsh. A good beer, but a bad idea, originally, to mix IPA and Stout.

Draught at Ølbaren
Golden color, hazy; creamy head. Very nice hop aroma, American (fruity) and English (manure). Caramel and toffee flavor, more dry than sweet, with a distinctive earthy hop presence; in the final it gets more and more bitter, with a switch to citrusy hops. I had good English Golden Ales like this one.

On tap at Pre ZBF 2010. Black, lasting beige head. Pretty hoppy. Really good I thought, very drinkable and could have had a lot of this if it wasn’t for the fact that there were so many other beers to get through, so congrats Ryan on a good beer. Lovely hops on finish. Good stinging finish. Drunk over lunch in the sun room in the castle.

From tap at Ørsted Ølbar. Pours dark brown to black with a mall tan and lacing head. Aroma is orange fruity, light malty note. Nice peachy an orange fruity hops flavoured, initial sweet impression. Holds a dark roasted malt note. Going into a rather dry and bitter finish. Lasting grapefruity and peachy flavoured into the far finish.
