[Cask at Charlies Bar, Copenhagen] A hazy orange beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has a light touch of diacethyl combined with light notes of green apples. The flavor has a subdued sweetness combined with a good deal of hops; aroma hops giving it notes of flowers, and bitter hops, giving it an OK bitter finish, but also with some notes of fruit. The body though is thin.

Cask. Sour flavour, seems off. Weak aftertaste. Thin mouthfeel. Andy from Charlie’s claims it is OK, but then again, he is an arrogant... person.
