Bottle. A slightly chill-hazed almost golden beer with a moderate sized, white head. Citrusy on the nose, with grapefruit and some pineapple. A touch of pale malt in the background. Medium body, quite effervescent, with a bit too much sweetness. Fine hoppy fruityness and bitterness. Grapefruit and resin. Medium lenght fruity finish with grapefruit and resin. Easy to drink and quite quenching, but not a very interesting beer. (090220)

Bottle 0,5l. Golden colored. An OK creamy head.Aroma of citrus. A bit watery fruity flavor with a good bitterness. Quite good - but lacks a happy ending.

500 ml bottle. Hazy golden colour. Tall white fine-laced head. Citrusy, and slightly minty, hop aroma. Light malt aromas. Somewhat powdery texture from hops and grainy malts. Light-bodied. Crisp hop flavours and a gentle refreshing malt flavour. Overall a nice and very drinkable session beer.

Bottle in CA. Pours a golden amber body with an off white head. Moderate malt profile with some light caramel and burnt malts. A light nuttiness and thin hoppiness. Thin body with no alcohol

Biggish shiny offwhite head. Light yellow faintly hazy body. Fruity floral hoppy elderberry aroma with dusty pea notes. Dry-sweetish dusty floral wooden fruity taste with citric elderberry notes. Harmonic. Soft and mild mouthfeel. Lightish body. Dry resiny hay and flowers aftertaste. Extremely drinkable. A lovely beer. (0.5l bottle, Lørenskog brusshop, Oslo.)

500ml bottle from Luvians Bottleshop in St Andrews. The noisy pour reveals a golden body under a fading, slightly off-white head reduced to a patch on the surface. Smell of lemony fruits. Spicy and fruity hops in flavour alongside a touch of nutty malt. The best part was the soft and rounded spicy bitterness on the swallow. Dry and easy going. The bottle version is now available in Norway [31.10.2008].

50 cl bottle at home, Bought at Vaaland, Bryne. Clear dark golden color, very nice foamy off-white head. Aroma is fruity and hoppy, also spices. Flavor is fruity and hoppy with fine malty sweetness and some spices. Very fine for a 4,1%-beer, but off course a litte bit watery.
