Bottle. Hazy golden-orange color. No real head..hmmm maybe a touch past it’s prime, not one to be aged assumably. I expected much more from AA. This pretty much tasted like a sugar bomb to me. No real subtleties or interesting facets. Candi-sugar dominated, sweet sugary aftertaste. Not much vibrance. Hardly comparable to a good Belgian example. Mellow sweet aroma. Got better as it warmed to room temperature.

Draft at the Brewpub. Cloudy orange-yellow. Classic banana-clove taste. Fresh and lively. Smooth and creamy, with a subtle, dry, bitter, lemony, almost a touch of saltiness flavor profile. Remains soft and light on the palate but full of flavor. Perfectly executed Hefeweizen. Emphasis on clove vs. banana.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of over ripe fruits, hops, and alcohol. The flavor is sweet malt combined with notes of over ripe fruits, leading to a dry, alcoholic, and bitter hoppy finish. Thanks CaptainCougar for coming to Denmark and sharing this.

12oz shorty bottle. Murky orange-brown color. Minimal oily head. Very nice sweet nutty aroma. Medium bodied, very easy drinker. Complex brown malt tastes, spicily hopped in very balanced way. Some caramel sweetness along with a nutty richness. A very nicely done Brown Ale, too sessionable to win Ratebeer accolades, but a quality product all the way. Worth a try for those into the style.

Bottle 35,5 cl. Courtesy of CaptainCougar. Clear amber golden with a rough, off-white head. Intense aroma of caramel, overripe fruit and alcohol. Full-bodied, overripe fruit and caramel with a vague yeasty edge - a fishy touch. The alcohol in the finish is a bit overdone. 300809
