2.9 Getrunken als Faxe Red Erik. Kommt in der 1-Liter-Dose. Ein dunkles Starkbier mit 6,5 % Alk und unbekannter Stammwürze. Neben Wasser, Gerstenmalz und Hopfen findet sich auch Mais, Glukosesirup, Holunderbeerensaftkonzentrat und Salz auf der Zutatenliste - also alles was man zwingend braucht, um ein gutes Bier zu brauen. Dunkelrote Farbe, auch leicht rötlicher Schaum. Geruch süßlich frisch. Geschmacklich spielt (anders als es die Farbe erwarten lässt) Röstmalz gar keine so große Rolle. Die Holunderbeeren merkt man allerdings deutlich. Mit einem Radler oder Alkopop hat das trotzdem nix zu tun. Eine bittere Note fällt auf, die aber zum Teil vom Alkohol kommt. Kaum Kohlensäure. Extrem süffig. Gefährlich. Ist der 1-Liter-Kanister (Dose kann man dazu ja kaum mehr zu sagen) erst mal auf, muss man ihn auch austrinken. Irgendwo ganz lustig, danach will man aber auch wieder ein richtiges Bier.

2.7 Pours amber ruby color with a finger of head. Malty toasty sweet bread aroma. Chewy malty, toast.

2.3 33cl bottle from local store. Pours clear red amber with nice frothy almost pink-strawberry color foam and lots of lacing. Aroma is moderate roasted malt, fruity, berries, some liquor and alcoholic. Taste is roasted malt, berries and red fruits, sweetish and syrupy, some hoppy finish and mostly very sweet with 6.5% abv. Made also with elderberry juice i read on the label and it tastes very juicy and fruity indeed maybe a little too much i would say, it's very noticeable. Medium body and average carbonation. It's drinkable and i kind of like the idea but a bit too sweet, at least it's kind of appreciable i had worse for sure.

2.8 Aroma; fruits, malts, hay, grain. Look; off-white low head on clear amber reddish body. Taste; amber malts, berries, grass, fruit, sweet grain, n finishes malted. Feel; allright body n co². Overall; it`s allright. [bottle, old find, enjoyed @apartment of PivotekaH7]

2.6 33cl bottle, clear glass. Pours a nice brilliant red-brown, with very fine white foam. Aroma is artificially sweet, caramel. Body is a little dense, with average carbonation. Taste is weirdly sweet, feeling somehow like a soda. Final is fairly short.

4.3 Una rossa particolare, dolce e rinfrescante. Un colore stupendo che sembra rubino con la giusta luce.

2.7 Butelka 0,33 litra zakupiona w Genui. Barwa czerwona, przejrzysta. Piana nietrwała. Aromat skórki chleba. W smaku słodkawe.

3.0 330ml bottle. Pours cherry red with a large head. Aroma is dusty caramel and a little strawberry. Taste has cherry seeds to start and a cherry and raspberry yoghurt finish.

3.5 bottiglia 33 cl, schiuma beige tendente al rosa fine media persistenza, colore rosso rubino limpido, al naso malto lievito frutta rossa, in bocca è fresca fruttata malto frutta fragola spezie, corpo leggero, carbonazione leggera, dolce con amaro leggero. Lo so è un po’ chimicona, sarò di parte ma la Red Erik è sempre buona. 08.07.18 il giorno del mio compleanno

3.0 Een amberkleurig bier met een moutige, zoete fruitige smaak, iets van pruimen. Het heeft een vol mondgevoel en eindigt met een lange bittere nasmaak.

2.6 The beer has got a clear dark red colour with a small head and medium body. Aroma of malt and fruits. Taste of malt, bread, prunes. Malty finish.

2.5 330ml bottle from Carrefour in Milan, drunk at the hotel. Pours clear with a brief frothy head, slight lacing, no visible bead. Orangey red in colour, On the nose, the promise of sweetness, slight fruitiness lead by red berries and plum. In the mouth, low carbonation, quite a bit of sweetness, mildly bitter, some malt and murky fruit flavours. Overall, fruity but ordinary.

2.4 Aroma praticamente inesistente. Sapore acidognolo e un po'acquoso nonostante la grazione alcolica non troppo bassa. Una birra al limite del bevibile, sconsigliata.

2.3 Interessant exportøl. Sødlig fyldig pilsnersmag. En skam den eksporteres til Italien.

2.2 bottle bb 16/5/18 rosso rubino limpida schiuna media non molto persistente caramella zucchero lieve nota fruttata floreale mais in bocca etilica

1.5 Skunky old butter was too much for me to handle. The skunk was noticeable over a meter away! Very sweet and malty.

2.4 Bottled (backlog). Hazy ambery red colour with a small off-white foamy head. Aroma is sweet malts, some caramel, mild floral and grassy notes along with some some fruits. Flavour is very sweet maltiness with some berries and mild alcohol showing as well.

2.6 Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso riconosce fragola e frutti rossi in generale. L’intensità olfattiva è normale e la persistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma resiste poco ed è costituito da bollicine medie. L’aspetto del liquido è opalescente. La carbonazione è bassa. Il colore è ambrato rossiccio carico tendente marrone. Il corpo è snello. Il dolce è pesante. L’amaro è leggero. L’intensità gustativa è leggera e la persistenza gustativa è sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono di pronta beva. Il retrogusto è sfuggente. Il palato riporta sentori di miele, crosta di pane, frutta, formaggi, verdure cotte e un debole aroma gommoso.

2.3 25-JUL-2016, can @home, from Menu. Clear red with a low White head. Fruit, berries. Not a lot of bitterness. Not a lot of malty stuff. Very sweet. Not good.

2.6 Bottle a while back, uk import, but source not now recalled. Poured a slightly hazy amber/red colour with a small off-white head. Aroma of malt, sweet caramel, with light fruit. Quite heavy on sweetness. Light bitterness. Medium body, oily texture. Finish is finish and alcoholic.

2.5 50 cl. dåse. Rødbrun med lille hvidlig skumkrone. Smagen er sødlig og frugtagtig. Medium fylde og let bitterhed men en okay øl.

2.0 Very sweet and fruity with dominant fruit juice flavors. Works well as an aperitif.

1.8 Can. Pours reddish amber with airy pinkish off-white head. Clear aroma of some cheap fruit juice, with notes of yeast. Sweetish flavour of cheap juice and inferior yeast, with notes of metal and touches of hops and malt. Bitter, metallic and estery aftertaste. Poor. Now, here’s the important part. Years ago, when I was half my present age, a teacher of mine warmly recommended this beer to me. I lived in Poland at that time and paid what was a small fortune to me to get this beer. Deeply impressed, I genuinely thought the beer was delicious. So much so that when I first visited Denmark a few years later, I asked for this beer in a variety of shops but it was nowhere to be found. Finally, one evening in a drowsy 7-11 in Copenhagen, a young sales assistant kindly explained to me that the beer could not be sold in Denmark because it contained detergent. Well, she may not have known the first thing about beer, or just her English was not good enough, but... it tastes as if she was damn right.

1.9 A Danish red lager with low white head and with fruit juice and corn. Aroma is fruity, malty, caramel, yeasty. Taste is sweet and light bitter. Light pearly.

3.0 Limpido color rosso con sottile schiuma bianca. Aroma e gusto dolciastri, debolmente maltati, con una punta di amarognolo. Corpo lieve, effervescenza media. Birra piuttosto "chimica" ma non eccessivamente spiacevole.

2.9 I found this one in my cellar, which was bought at least 8 or 9 years ago. The date on the bottle states : "26.07.2008" It’s not that bad actually. It has a light smell that says that it’s old, but still drinkable. Red fruits, sweet, alcohol seems higher Not much co2 left

2.0 (5) Average at best. So the memories of this beer goes back to (I have had it since) but it is one of the earliest beers that I have tried.

1.7 KØLF 030715. Red golden colour with a white head. Flavour is spices, hop, fruit, berries, yeast. Medium body. Boring beer.

2.7 En billig men alligevel rimelig øl. Der er en stærk smag af alkoholen men ellers er der ikke det store over den.
