Bottle Pale amber beer with a thin whitish head. Slightly sour citrus (lemon-lime) aroma with some spice. Low carbonation. Lemon-lime flavor with some wheat and herbal tones. Light mouthfeel because of low carbonation. I agree with below in that it reminds me a bit of a less sweet, lower carbonated sprite/beer mix.

Bottled 30cl (BB 07/2007). Pale hazy yellow-orange color, small white head. Aroma of herbs and diacetyl-butterscotch. Light lemonade palate. Herbal, light spicey flavor, sweetish fruity notes (apple, lemon). Quite witbier-like. Gruit is more like vanity here.

Bottled. Hazy golden colour, small white creamy head. Aroma is barnyardish and slight caramellish. Flavour is sour acidic citrus and barnyard. Quite twisted and weird beer, but still refreshing and quite interesting mix.

A cloudy light yellow beer with a huge white head. The aroma is very fruity especially with lemon and lime notes, but also with light notes of malt and acidity in the back ground. The flavor is sweet combined with a bit of acidity and quite strong lemon and lime notes on a weak malty back ground, leading to a slightly grassy, but still lemony end, with a faint bitterness. A refreshing thirst quencher.

300 ml bottle, bought in Frederikshavn, Denmark. ABV is 6.8%. Cloudy golden colour, huge head. Yeasty and fruity aroma, notes of barnyard and rotting/fermenting apples and pears. Flavour and aftertaste are fruity and mildly acidic, hints of oak and spices. Good beer!

(Bottle 30 cl) Pours a pretty, clear red brown with a small, off-white head. Spicy, lightly herbal aroma. Rather flat carbonation. Medium-bodied, lightly tart with very spicy accents - mint and aniseed in particular. Very different and interesting. A "gruit beer". 300606

Bottle (thanks to bierkoning !): Deep golden coloured, stable mid-sized fluffy head, lively carbonation; sweet-malty, bisquity nose with a distinctive spicy (coriander, aniseed(?)) touch; slightly sweet, malty, medium sized body, some bitterness detectable; fruity (citrousy) and spicy finish, rounded by some mainly dry bitterness. A quite complex, pleasant Ale, nice
