(Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm, 17 June 2009) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of orange peel, mandarin, grapefruit and hints of resin. Fruity taste with orange peel, grapefruit, some grainy malt and a sharp citrussy bitterness in a dry finish. Lots of hops, but not very bitter. Lacking some malt character to balance the hops though. Nice and tasty.

Clear light brown to copper color, big fluffy lasting off-white head. Hoppy, red berries, citrus taste. Malty and floral hoppy scent. Moussy mouthfeel, medium bitterness.

I was in the final jury of the home brew competition, Swedish Championships 2008, where the original beer was declared the according to style winner as a "Brittish light ale" of sort. This seems to be more American though.

Bottled at Monk’s Café Wallingatan, Stockholm. Clear deep golden, small head. Slight grapefruit/gooseberry aroma. Sweet with clean, rounded mouthfeel. Simplistic lagerlike malt character barely covered in a thin blanket of tropical fruity hops. Finishes with notes of canteloupe, medium bitterness and slight metallic edges. is this really top fermented?
