Crystal clear pale amber pour with a small head that leaves nice lacing.Aroma is very floral and grassy with some sweet peach and pale malts in the background. Some faint diacetyl later on.Flavours are mostly green floral hops, sweet biscuity malts and and assertive hoppy bitterness.Carbonation is slightly too high but otherwise mouthfeel is fine.An excellent example of the style.

50cl Bottle brought from N-Z by a collegue. Thanks Gijs! Dark amber colour, creamy off-white head. Aroma of caramel, some alcohol and hops. Flavour is initially slightly sweet, caramel, malts, some spiciness, going towards a nice dry bittersweet and slightly alcoholic finish. Medium bodied. Good stuff. Reminds me of a less fullbodied version of Great Divide Hibernation Ale.

50cl bottle @ Vinensverden, Odense. Pours amber/orange with a white foam. Very fruity & sweet malty. Some orange & citrussy hops, a bit of caramel & dark fruits. Medium bodied. Would have liked it to be more vinous! Allright!

50cl Bottle, gift from a collegue who visited N-Z. Thanks Gijs! Black beer with a creamy tan to beige head. Odd salty aroma with strong notes of tar, burnt malts and seaweed. Not very pleasant, but it does give this beer an extra edge. Flavour is tar, burnt malts, slight sweetness, some salt/seaweed, some coffee powder. Roasted bitterness underneath from start to finish. Medium to fullbodied. Very nice porter.

(Bottled, BB 09/2008). Orange amber color, huge cloudy off-white head, some lace. Flowery, clover aroma. Quite hoppy, some fruits, bitter - almost harsh flavor. Similar to some Swedish Ölands brews (with more alcohol of course). Fruity and hoppy, solid APA.
