This beer has a color that is somewhere between orange and amber and when poured in a tulip glass a huge off-white head. The aroma is yeasty, fruity, and spicy - I pick up peaches, oranges, and coriander. The flavor is sweet with notes of the alcohol, that makes its presence known by giving off heat, but also notes of almost overripe fruits, like peaches and apples, that have just turned a bit more sweet and mellow, than when perfectly ripe. In the end coriander gives it a dry end. The mouthfeel is quite carbonated.

(Bottle 33 cl) Pale amber with a lovely, fluffy head - only a slight haze. Very pronounced maltiness, some fruits in there too - from the top-yeast. Very bitter finish makes this one well-balanced and refreshing indeed. 291297

Sampled draught at Akkurat, Stockholm, Sweden.
Golden coloured with very little head. Vague aroma of honey melon. Sweet and balsamic with big toffee flavour. The mouthfeel is quite sharp, and the finish is clean and full of honey.

Bottled. Hazy orange/brownish colour with mediumsized beige head. Aroma of citrus, yeast and hops. Flavour is quite strongly hopped, but still very pleasant. Malts and some acidic hints also show up. Short finish and aftertaste. Alcohol warms in the aftertaste, not while drinking. Biting carbonation and a bit oily palate, yet again papery dry afterwards.
