Hornbeer Vårøl
Danish: Hornbeer Vårøl bebuder forårets komme. Farven er gyldengul, der er masser af kulsyre der giver en dejlig friskhed og så er den let sød. Der er brugt gode mængder humle der sikrer tilpas bitterhed og en frugtagtig smag. Vårøl passer fint til frokostbordet, til ost eller dessert. Men Vårøl kan altså også sagtens drikkes uden mad.

Bottle: Hazy red colour, nice creamy head. Aroma is dominated of a nice mix of citrus, caramelly, flowers , caramelly, fruits. Flavor had this almost the same. medium body, frech mouth feeling of dry hopy citrus,flowers. Medium dry bitter finnish.
Bottle from Systembolaget. Hoppy and fruity smell, but alsospicy and a bit wineous. Similar taste with cardboard. Rough mouthfeel. Sharp bitterness. Oxidated or just poorly made?
Gylden brun lett tåkete med høyt beige skum. Lukter fersken, sydhavsfrukt, sitrusskall, krydder, aprikos og noe karamell. Fyldig. Rask middels til mye bitterhet. Sitrusskall. Lett sødme i bakgrunnen. Middels lang.
humlefrisk, vingummiartad honungsdoft.
Disig, halvljus bärnstens-/honungsfärg. Kort skum.
Hård, metallisk smak med obalanserat stor och skarp beska mot en jolmig sötma.
Tunn kropp och överdimensionerad kolsyra.
Torr avslutning och en jobbig, kvarhängande beska.
Bottle from systembolaget. Pours a golden colour beer with a medium head. Hoppy and fruity with a lot of pine. Dry finish
Aromer av grapefruit och toner av bondgård. Orange grumlig färg. En härlig bitterhet, men saknar lite fruktiga toner. I det stora hela en trevlig öl.
Appearance: hazy orange color, rocky white head.
Aroma: grapefruit (lots), orange, farm.
Taste: lots and lots of bitterness <3
Palate: huge body, thick texture, average carbonation, bitter finish.
Overall: this is not an apa, its an ipa, to little aromatic hops and too much bitterness for an apa. I love bitterness so i love this beer, but it doesnt represent the style any good. ipa would be a better bet or even dipa!
@ Stordirren 16-4-28: Mycket märkligt både doft och smak. Toner av gummi och örter. Tydlig humle men en stor industriell bismak
Nja, ganska bra tryck men jag upplever den som obalanserad och saknar balans. Vad är vårligheten?
Smells of flowers, hops and citrus... Some what dishwater like in apperance, with a thick white head.
Nice taste but maybe a bit watery.. Over all a nice beer..
pours amber with a white head, aroma is citrus and floral, taste is citrus and pine with slight caramel, a nice refreshing bitter/sweet beer with medium carbonation and medium body.
Bottle. Hoppy aroma of citrus, pine, floral, spicy. The flavours is light sweet and heavy bitter. Very fruity. The body is medium and the texture is oily. Soft carbonation. A nice one...
Aromat mocno daje autolizą, niestety... do tego jakies tam lekkie nuty cytrusowe, połaczone z karmelem i czosnkiem. Piwo prezentuje sie całkiem pokaźnie, tak troche na East Coast IPA, kolor karmelowy, z ładną dronopęcherzykowa piana, prawie jak na azocie. Niestety w smaku tez pustka. Jakas tam goryczka dochodzi, lekko garbnikowa i nic. Szkoda, zapewne piwo po długiej podróży i zaleganiu na półce sklepowej straciło to co najlepsze...
Bottle..Pour is amber with some head..Nose is musty, grain, nut, dry wood..Taste is soft, bread, spice, grain roast, musty grass..
[Köpenhamns ölfestival 2014] Det här var en riktigt fin öl med skönt fruktiga toner och en fint balanserad smak. Kroppen var stabil och upplevelsen fulländad.
Köpenhamn ölfestival 2014] dov i aromen. Lugnt relativt balanserad i smake.
A good, floral and grassy aroma. The taste is a little sweet and has a moderate bitterness that gets a good taste to the beer. Bitterness in the aftertaste is weak and reaches the upper part of the mouth for a long time. A perfect spring beer to start the spring with.

ala che non nasconde i toni dolci. color arancione con corpo velato in groppa ha una lunga schiuma che persiste. gli aromi non sono gli scontati agrumi e tropical.si sentono i malati
buona
El color es un bonito y límpido cobre oscuro con tonos rojizos, la espuma es de color crema y tiene muy buena retención y durabilidad. El aroma lupulado se mueve entre los tonos afrutados de melocotón y el olor a pino. Las notas de malta también están presentes. En boca, es ligera, bien carbonatada. entra sedosa, sin aportar dulzor para más adelante mostrarse amarga, ligeramente afrutada de inicio, pero intensamente seca y resinosa al final. Muy rica y bien hecha.
On tap @ Animal. amber colour with a white head with medium to long duration but with a good lacing. Aroma is very fruity with light notes of bitter oranges, tropical fruits, light pepper ad caramel. Flavor has light notes of caramel, brown sugar and toasted malts with a decen bitterness in the final and moderate dry.
Tap at CBC Brixton. Pours a hazy amber colour with white head. Aroma is sugary, candy fruit - berries. Light to medium body, fine carbonation. It's toffee, candy (love hearts), a slight veg funkiness and a mild bitterness. Sticky, a touch too sweet for me but nice.
Bottle 0.5l at Oluttupa Viisi Penniä, Helsinki. Originally rated 19082011. Colour is cloudy orange with small head. Aromas and flavours: Spices, sweetness, hops and malts.
Thanks to bu11zeye for sharing this bottle. Orange with a white head. The aroma is full of wheat, oranges, pears and white pepper. The flavor is similar with some juicy orange notes as well as some pepper, wheat and leather. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.
Whatever the type of this beer may be, its aroma is very complex. The best before date was 03-15-13, maybe this contributes to the peculiar nose. Taste reminds of a sweet dubbel, slightly bitter aftertaste. Palate is ok at first, decreases a bit (lack of carbonation). Admittedly, this bottle might have been too old, but in this case it’s a bit disappointing.
23.04.2012, 0,5l bottle sampled @ Maltmisjonen tasting:

Bottle from Barley Wine, CPH. Pours cloudy golden brown with a short, soft khaki head. Big caramel, pine and tropical fruit aroma. Loads of hops and a nice sweet malty backbone.
