Commercial Description:
Pale Ale - is a pale, refreshing and aromatic beer with a fine malt profile from our English special malts. Generous use of fresh hops renders a zesty and delightful hoppy aroma and flavour. To be served at 8-10 degrees C. Bottle conditioned - unfiltered and unpasteurised, no artificial carbonation. (Not to be confused with the stronger Haandbryggeriet India Pale Ale.)

Lovely smell of flowers as I pour, and lots of aromatic hops from the first sip. This is the best supermarket strength beer brewed in Norway! Like a premium English ale, with all the aroma squeezed from the ingredients. Pine/resin, tobacco, grass. If you like hops, this is a winner.

Bottle at RBESG 2007. So hoppy, thinnish on the malts, but hot hop on the end. Superb.

Bottle. Local gathering. Pours a nice deep orange colour with a huge well lasting white head. Very fruity bit sweet aroma with mango and hops. Good mouthfeel. The flavour has a very pleasant hoppy fruitiness with mango and citrus, bitter hops and some caramel. Dry, fruity bitter well lasting finish.

Very fresh taste, quite bitter and noticeably lacking american hops, bit horseblanket like aftertaste and earthy. but generally a very nice and unusual pale ale. like.
