Bottle, 5.0% bought at the brewpub. Cloudy orange colour. Big stable rocky off-white head. The flavour is mildly bitter with some rough, but good bread notes. Has a little smoke, like their pils, but pleasant.

Draught at the brewpub. Clear golden colour. Big stable white head. The flavour starts off with a hint of smoke. Quite mild, but nice enough. There seems to be a hint of bread or perhaps barnyard, but that might just be the smoke. The landlord says there is no smoke malt in there, though.

Draught at the brewpub. Cloudy yellow, rich head. Perfumy nose with grass underneath. Very soft with generously amounts of malt covered in thick layers of grassy, resiny hops and some minerals. Massive late bitterness. Realy good. I assume this is just an unfiltered version of the pils, but flavourwise it makes all the difference in the world.

(bottle) Almost clear, amber coloured hue with some yeast floaties and a medium-sized, slowly lacing, slightly off-white head. Sweet malty, slightly toasted nose with cacao and light notes of caramel, accompanied by a shy hoppy touch. Sweet flavour, robust toast-malty taste with caramel and a touch of chocolate/cacao; medium to full bodied with a moderately carbonated mouthfeel. Sweet malty and toasty finish with balancing bitter and herbal hops, traces of alcohol are also detectable. Decent Bock (08.08.07).

Bottle, shared by Papsoe. Pours a clear, copper body, with an off-white to beige head. Sweet, a bit cellary/dusty aroma with caramel and fruityness, mostly dried fruits. Nice, sweet and malty start on the flavor, then some fruityness and alcohol-notes comes through, and there’s even room for some bitterness. Full, quite sweetish and slightly warming mouthfeel. Nice, pleasant and warming. (071005)
