Ørbæk Santa C is a fullbodied CHristmas beer with a nice golden colour and a delicious taste of Christmas. Brewed by top fermentation of water, organic grown barleymalt, organic grown hops and yeast.

[1] Review by oh6gdx from Vaasa, Finland who has tried this beer once. (5/3/2007 4:34:01 AM)
"(as Vinhandlerens Eget Brygg Crimson Ale). Amber colour, minor head. Aroma is apples, caramel, alcohol, plum and burnt sugar. Flavour is malty, sweet sugary as well as some balancing hops. Quite sour and acidic appleish overall, and especially aftertaste. "

[2] Review by Bov from Bienne, Switzerland who has tried this beer once. (2/24/2007 3:21:48 AM)
"cloudy and not very appetizing amber-brown colour, regualr and stable brown-tainted foam, nice lace; very strong aroma of ginger and nuts, dusty; medium-bodied at best but the malt profile is not constant, finishing quite thin; more spices and some caramel in the aftertaste - it really tastes like Christmas ... but I am not a great fan of Christmas"

[3] Review by kschepelern from København Ø, Denmark who has tried this beer once. (11/25/2005 4:06:36 PM)
"after corking it the aroma is sweet, berry with a bitter trace - the color is a medium foggy red/brown - the head is low but stays with medium laces
the taste is bitter hops, somewhat warm and quite crisp with some with a bitter finish"

[4] Review by Sigmund from Hafrsfjord, Norway who has tried this beer once. (1/3/2005 6:11:44 PM)
"(330 ml bottle). Copper coloured, a slight haziness, moderate but relatively thick beige head. Malty sweet aroma, caramel. Flavour is again malty sweet with some caramel - definitely too sweet. One-dimensional. Thin mouthfeel despite the sweetness. The brewers claim they have used "organic grown hops" - maybe those hops were organic to a degree that they were left to rot on their stems, ’cause there sure is no trace that any of them have been used in this beer! Very disappointing."
