Comments: Inviting fresh, gently citrusy, juicy and crisp, flowery and refreshing beer.

Fliptop bottle 0.5 l. Cloudy golden, looks a bit like a hefe-weizen. Lacy small head. Honey, hops and some citrus nose. Flavor is slightly acidic and nicely hoppy with a orange juicy fullness. Very nice with a really fatty texture. Good.

Bottle. Hop aroma with a very light citrus note. Cloudy orange color with a small white head. Smooth body with notes of citrus, fruits and a hop note. Nice dry crisp and hop palate. Surprisingly refreshing.

Bottle (50 cl) from Ølbutikken, Copenhagen, Denmark. Cloudy deep golden with a medium white head. Earthy malt aroma with strong hoppy notes of apricot and citrus. Smooth and creamy indeed, dry with a relatively short bitter finish.

Bottle. Golden color with a white head. Aroma of hops, flowers, citrus, sweet malt, wheat and fruit. Tastes of citrus, apricot, caramel, honey, flowers, some sourness. Medium carbonation. Smooth and creamy mouthfeel. A very light and refreashing ale.
