Ole_R (1183), Oslo, Norway Jul 17, 2008 500 ml bottle shared by yngwie. A big shiny white head over a greyish yellow, well-carbonatied body. Rather artificial banana aroma and some distant whiffs of dry malts. Taste is sourish malty with a faint bana-like fruitiness. Very thin-bodied. Dry, neutral finish. Mediocre.

Cloudy yellow, fine head.
Soft wheat malt. Kölsch-like fruitness.
Peach, orange. Very refreshing, a nice summer beer. Dr_Funk (78), Sorumsand, Norway Aug 12, 2008 Bottle courtesy of Vea. Pours clear pale yellow with white head. Yeasty aroma with banana esters and some bubblegum. Intense carbonation that overpowers the taste initially, which is good, because the taste is very watery. At least the carbonation provides a bit of a taste sensation yngwie (3454), Kristiansand, Norway Jul 30, 2008 Bottle. (#820) It pours an unclear, yellow-orange body and a nice white head. The carbonation is so intense, it causes the yeast to circulate vertically. Fascinating. The aroma is too artificial, with banana and bubblegum being the most evident. Fruits, a touch of cloves and some tiny sour notes too. Too sour in the mouth, in a grainy way, with artificial banana, some citrus and yeast, and a little flavor of cloves. Medium full body, highly effervescent. Not a bad beer, but fails to pin the style I think. (080708) larsga (2141), Oslo, Norway Jul 9, 2008 Huge white fine-laced lasting head. Opaque paleish yellow body. Thin watery estery aroma with bananaish notes. Dry chemical grainy banana bubblegum taste with chalky notes. Fizzy. Carbonates in the mouth. Thin mouthfeel. Dry artificial aftertaste lingers. Didn’t like this much, which surprised me. (0.5l bottle from yngwie. Batch #820.)
