De 5 Gaarde – Didrik & Orla

Two danish beers from “De 5 Gaarde“, a label representing some kind of cooperative of 5 property yards which make food, beer and spirit the traditional way. The beer is actually brewed by the Harboe brewery not known for high quality beers, imho.
Orla the “Pilsner” beer was very nice indeed, somewhat reddish in colour [...]

Willemoes Ale & Willemoes Schwarzbier

These two very well balanced beers from the Vestfyen brewery in Denmark were very different to their names. The Schwarzbier was quite light and not as harsh as e.g. Köstritzer Schwarzbier.

JAS 39 Gripen
De Haviland Tiger Moth DH82
J34 – Hawker hunter
and many more…

(tags: comic humor sex funny)

On the little island Fur in Denmark this red-golden delicious beer is brewed.
