Påskebryg by Ørbæk

Written by: | Posted on:

Påskebryg by Ørbæk bryggeri was an instant hit. It has quite a strong taste, with a surprisingly lack of after-taste. It has a very nice foam, has lots of spice and hop, and is moderately sweet.

In color its dark, and you can't see trough the glass, it's too misty / unfiltered for that. It has an average amount of gas, and will go well with most kinds of food. This beer is an excellent replacement for a good glass of wine, and can be had by itself. Only weird thing is that if you served this to me as a christmas beer, in my ignorance I wouldn't know better than to call it an excellent christmas beer as well. ;-)

All in all, a great beer that I'll definitely have another of. And many bonus points for the nice hare on the label ;-)

Påskebryg - Ørbæk - Ecological

Written by: | Posted on:

Next up is an ecological beer from Ørbæk.

The first thought was that this beer aspires to be a trapist, yet isn't as rich in the flavour. It has a pleasant darkness (I prefer dark beer), is well balanced, nice foam and it goes well with cheese (we tried that) and chocolate. It could have a bit more notes of flower and spice, it's easter ale after all, but I get the impression this is a beer I wouldn't mind serving guests all year around, perhaps except for christmas.

On a minus note, it has a faint metallic smell, but apart from that, this is a beer I can fully recommend, and I'll be sure to buy a few more of. I should add that the hints of coffee were a nice plus. The label is nice, but I believe that previous years they used to have an easter bunny. In short: go bunnies! ;-)
