First rating
(33 cl bottle at GW68, Stockholm)
Clear dark golden to light brown color, tan to orange head. Hoppy citrus, orange and peach scent. Very hoppy and bitter taste, fruity and pine mixed with spruce. Medium moutfheel. Rather big bitterness, but the biggest I’ve felt in a "lättöl", ever!

Clear golden color, smallish white head. Green, hoppy scent. Some cheeze, the the smells that comes from "too much" hops sometimes. Hoppy bitter herbal taste, long bitter aftertaste. A bit thin mouthfeel, but bigger than I remember, still bigger than most lättöl. Medium high to high bitterness.

courtesy of Per Forsgren/Samuelsson - hazy orange colour with a little but persistent white foam; correct lacing; very flowery hoppy nose with notes of orange peel and hay; moderate malt body and fairly bitter; long hoppy and slightly dry finish; a bit resiney

Bottled. A golden beer with a rim of beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with primary notes of caramel, but also a light touch of alcohol, and so is the flavor, with a dry finish. The body is no wonder thin.

Bottled. Hazy golden. Large, white head. Sweet, fruity, grassy, hoppy aroma. A bit thin, but still with a lot of grassy hoppiness. Also some fruitiness.

(Bottle, Stockholm Beer Festival, 19 Sep 2008) Pale amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, malty nose with hay, fresh grass and sourish hints of vegetables. Fruity taste with notes of hay, grapefruit and lots of citrussy hops in the finish. A lot fresher taste than aromas. Fairly dry and bitter. Thin body. Surprisingly nice and tasty for such a low abv.

Bottle. Hazy yellow with white head. Sweet malt with some nice hops in it. Fruits.. Since it is low alcohol beer it has a thin body but nevertheless quite impressive, Too bad I can’t buy it in my local supermarket here in Gothenburg. I bought this bottle in a local store in Borgholm, Öland, Sweden

Bottled (BB 01/2008)
Hazy orange color, big cloudy beige head. Strong flowery hoppy Amarillo-nose. Quite light, but flowery hoppy and yeasty, almost like "the real thing". Sweet pale malty background. Like all Ölands beers - loaded with hops.

Smallish offwhite head. Light brown body with particles. Strong sweetish overripe floral earthy aroma, with strawberry notes. Medicinal watery strawberry taste, very dry. No real aftertaste. It’s OK, but a bit watery and harsh. (0.33l bottle at Akkurat.)
