Bottled. Dark mahogany colour, creamy head. Roasty and nutty, lots of dark chocolate. Medium dry and medium bodied. Salty finish with come cocoa bitterness. Really good (at least efter drinking a variety of beers from Harboe and Vestfyen...).

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange/amber and wth a huge, dense and light tan head. Aroma is light fruity and has mild malt notes, light yeast note too. Light spiced caramel malt driven flavour. Medium sweetness and with a light acidity. Ends with a mild malt note into the finish. Shows a bit of bitterness along the way.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a white head. Aroma is dough yeasty and light fruity hops. Flavour is fresh hops, slight subdued by a caramel malt base. Gains some bitterness towards the finish. Quite classic pale ale with a mild tea like flavour to it.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a huge light orange/yellow head. Malty aroma, faintly as fruity hoppy as I had expected, slight spiced nose too. Flavour starts medium sweet, quickly turns into a more spiced bitterhops flavour with a solid and strong malt base. Bitter finish with a mild orange fruity note. Classic Virklund dense herbal and dry malty finish with a dry bitterness.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a white head. Aroma is mild orangefruity and slight herbal hoppy. Flavour is mild fruity, but mostly quite dominated by bitterhops on top of a quite subdued malt base. Some fruity hops lingering vaguely on top of this. Ends solid bitter.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy dark orange with a dense off-white head. Caramel malty, slight spiced and light fruity aroma. Flavour starts sweet caramel malty, reveals a little spice note and a very mild smoke/meady note too. Flavour holds a complex mix with some belgian yeast tones and mild English tobacco like hops all swept in a sweet caramel malty blend. Mild lingering finish with little bitterness. Somewhat undefineable mix but not bad.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel and dusty hops. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel, citrus, and hops. Thanks Myrup for this beer.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a huge off-white and collapsing head. Fruity hops and caramel malt aroma. Fresh fruity flavour with a subdued caramel malt base and a solid bitterness lurking through towards the finish. A very tasty yeast note beneath providing a rather mellow feel and flavour to the brew.

(Bottle 50 cl) Hazy, dark amber with a rough, off-white head. Fruity and somewhat floral aroma also with quite some acidity - but definitely not in an infected manner. Medium body with lightly sweet caramel accents and some flower imprints before a surprisingly bitter finish. There’s actually some leathery astringency - almost Orvallish. Quite a different take on a Christmas beer - less christmasy perhaps, but quite interesting. 221207
