BA style is wrong. Should be an Irish Red Ale as per the Nørrebro website.
A - Brown rust with a thin head that can't wait to completely vanish
S - Slightly woody, bread crust, candied sugar
T - I want my money back. Nothing really going on here save for a hint of malt. This is really just one step above water for me.
M - Thin but balanced.
O - I don't know what they were aiming for, but they missed in every known dimension.

Bottle: Poured a clear amber color ale with a medium foamy head with OK retention. Aroma of light caramelized malt with dry cereal notes with light spongy hoppy notes. Taste is also a mix of dry caramelized malt with light metallic hoppy notes. Body is about average with OK carbonation. Not sure what the brewer was aiming for the results are slightly below average.

500 mL bottle from supermarket in Lyngby, Denmark, poured into a pint glass
A 5 fingers of fine golden head sitting on a clear, deeply red body. The bubbles shrink to 2 fingers in a minute and then settle to smooth layer hugging the glass.
S Dark toffee and molasses malt smells with some pleasant spicy, gingery hops. A hint of phenol that blends nicely with the malt.
T Warm sweet malts, like Malteasers, with building dark toffee taste and toasty notes at the end. A really rich but mellow and well balanced malt taste. The bittering hops are perfunctory and the finish is clean. I wouldn’t guess the ABV.
M Medium carbonation and smooth, with a bit of oiliness that hugs the tongue. It works great with the luxurious malt.
Overall: Drinkable from the first sip and the malts taste nicer ever time you pick up the glass. One of my favourites of the style so far.

Pours copper with a large, lasting head.
Nose shows rich malt, lots of brown sugar and golden syrup along with some spices hinting at cinnamon.
Very similar flavours but with some added toasty and nutty malt and resinous hops. Finishes with a mild, metallic bitterness.
Carbonation is a bit over the top.

I dont think this brew is retired as i only bought it yesterday anyway it pours a nice cherry red hue with decent carbonation that leaves behind a creamy two finger head and heaps of lacing everywhere,the aroma is quite sweet with hints of rosewater,bready malts and some tropical punch too,it has a nice medium bodied well carbonated mouthfeel and has tastes of bready malts,passionfruit,apricots and finishes with a nice hoppy bitterness and overall its a nice brew that is very easy to drink without being too complex.

Copper red with a complex malty aroma. Large head of light-brown colour. Tastes hoppy, with a strong presence of roasted malty flavours. Fruity, well balanced aftertaste with gentle bitter tones dancing across the tongue.
Best I've had from Nörrebro so far. Gift from H. Zehler, thank you!
