Yellowish orange coloured beer. Taste is fruity with hints of apple. Ends on a somewhat watery bitter note, with some hints of cardboard.

Bottled@Monks Café, Stockholm. Pale orangeish amber colour with small white foamy head. Aroma is flowery and fruity hops. Flabvour is quite grassy with some wooden and caramelly notes. Rather mouthdrying, yet refreshing session beer.

500ml bottle from Sainsburys, Bracknell. Amber with a loose white head; fruity aroma with apricot; earthy bitter taste with more apricot fruitiness and some citrus; and a salty earthy finish. Very drinkable.

(Bottle, Monk’s Café, Stockholm) Golden colour with firm, white head. Fruity nose with apricots, orange peel and fresh hints of Fuggles hops. Fruity taste with apricots and floral, slightly earthy hops in the finish. Some grainy malt underneath. Turns dry towards the finish. Rather light body. Tasty and refreshing.

Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm. Clear golden, dense small head. Hoppy fruity nose with a touch of melon. Sweet with clean rounded mouthfeel, some butter and grain. Notes of pears and salt. Finishes with medium bitterness.

Bottle thanks to father. Aroma is grainy pale malts, sweetish and grassy bittering hop. Taste is similar, small lemon note. Basicly too much carbonation and not enough hops.
