(Bottle 50 cl) As "Mikkeller Centennial IPA". Hazy orangey brown with a handsome, beige head with good retention. Fat - but still fresh - hoppy aroma, some flowers in there. Full body with a sweet base of caramel. The Centennial hops are clearly dominating, first fresh and fruity but it gradually builds up on your palate and the beer finishes very bitter. Wauw, and the head still stands after the liquid is gone. 230606

On tap at Cph Beerfestival. Amber, almost clear, without carbonation, and some white bubbles on top. Sour and yeasty aroma with green apples. Quite citric and astringent flavor, with apples and barnyard. No cherries tasted. Tart and astringent mouthfeel, but surprisingly no alcohol, even though it is a bit warming. Not a classic, but an interesting experiment with a pleasant outcome. (060519)

Draught @ Copenhagen Olfestival 2006. A black colored beer with a dense light brown head. Nice hop aroma’s to give you a real strong start. Fruit or spice is on the beerchart, this beer has it all, wow to Mikkeller, you brewers amaze me. Very complex, perfectly balanced with a well present hoppyness.

Bottled at Cph Beerfestival. Hazy, deep copper-colored beer with no carbonation and no head. Lots of hops and pinecones in the nose, as well as some alcohol and citrus. Very sweet flavor, that doesn’t feel sticky in the mouth. Full bodied and with some light citrus flavors as well. It ends with a stinging bitterness. Interesting, but too sweet. Could go as a night cap, though. (060519)

Bottled. Golden-orange, hazy, beer with floaties and an off-white head. Lots of fruits in the aroma, that is pleasant and complex. Some candi-sweetness too. Fruity flavor with banana, pineapple, peach, alcohol, hops and spices. It has a well-balanced sweetness. The finish is quite bitter, with an astringent fruityness. The 11.5% ABV is well hidden in the flavors. A truly nice and complex beer from one of Europes smallest and most interesting brewers. (060518)

Draught. Citrusy hop aroma. Very cloudy dark copper colour. Nice, stable creamy head. The flavour has a good, uncompromising bitterness along with some aromatic hoppiness. The aftertaste gets a little yeasty.

Black color. As an ice coffee should be. Soft. Malt, coffee, roasted malt, high bitterness… just in one word: good!
