Copenhagen 26/4 2025. 50 cl bottle from Meny, Rotunden Hellerup. Blue label with a drawing of a Skeletal Viking with an arrow through the Skull.

Pours opaque murky, brownish amber with a mid-sized white head. Settles as an uneven and a bit lumpy layer form struggling to cover the surface of the beer. Massive lacing.

Aroma is fairly intense with a sweet malty odor mingling with sharp citric scent and a whiff of sulphur. Sweet pale malts and caramel. Grapefruit and Lime. Hints of Peach. Humid Cellar. Dry vibe.

Light carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, soft, almost flat texture.

Flavor is medium intense with a medium strong sweetness followed by a slightly stronger bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter with a tart touch. Finish is dry.

A rather potent visit in the Norwegian cellar.
