Copenhagen 10/12 2016. 50 cl bottle from Meny; Østerfælled Torv, Kbh. Ø. Snowy and icy landscape from Greenland and big Snow Crystal on the label.
Pours clear reddish dark brown with a white head. Settles as a 0,5 cm thick layer of foam. Lacing on the side of the glass.
Aroma is pretty weak. Sweet caramel with a hard metallic edge.
Soft carbonation and slightly thick palate.
Flavor is heavy sweet. Sugary. Almost no bitterness. Aftertaste is short and sweet.
Reminds me more of a way too sweet Dunkel than a Vienna. But that does not make it any more pleasant.

Groenland Ice Cap Beer.
It is not clearly marked as dark beer (the bottle I had). I was expecting a clear Lager.
It has a small brown head.
The aroma is sweet malty, like Caramalt. I can detect no Hop aroma.
The taste is the best about the beer. It is very sweet malty, but not too much. It has a very soft mouth feel.
Absolutely surprising, but extremely good. Dessert beer.

This beer is made with water from the Greenland Ice Cap.
500ml Bottle: picked up in Berlin. Poured twice into a bulbous ’Palm’ tulip @ home on 8 Mar 2013. Dark and headless brew, initial pour produces some bubbles but they burst and go very swiftly: weird taste and smell too, Rotting veg and fruit came to mind at first.
Dandilion and Burdock: that’s the old feeling I got from this.
As a one off it’s different and I suppose interesting: I’d not want a session on it though. Burping juice with some hidden alcohol.
