Clear amber/orange colour with small off-white head.
Fruity bitter hoppy aroma. Lots of maltiness and bitter hoppiness in flavour. Some yeast and alcohol warmth. Is this really Strong Lager? If so, very good.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 19, 2009 75cl bottle. Hazy orange to golden and slightly hazy beer. White head is huge, rocky and white in colour. Enormous amount of fruity and floral hops on the nose is something to experience: peach, lemon, sweet orange, honey and fresh pine needles. Toffy and caramelly maltiness give balancing sweetness. Clean and crisp pilsner-malty finsh. The alcohol is totally absent. Some pea soup-like off flavor appears when it gets too warm. The taste is dry and very bitter, but the amount of malts used cuts the sharpest edge. Palate is medium bodied and surprisingly smooth. Long and bitter finish. Top-class drinkability. Delicious, dangerous... Frovigalning (464), , Sweden
