Stunning pour - hazy yellow body with an enormous white head. Lots of yeasty character with strong orange citrus notes and slight spice.

750ml bottle poured into a tumbler. OH pours very light colored and hazy with a medium-sized head that persists nicely and leaves great lacing. The aroma is yeasty with hops and citrus juice adding character. The body is quite carbonated and causes the beer to glide over the front of the tongue, just allowing a touch of brown grasses or hay to be detected. The beer finally settles down into a very tart finish that can take you unawares at first.

tastes: tart, citrus, lemon, yeast, bite of bread. Sharp carbonation up front then tart leaving a light metallic yesty aftertaste less metallic as it warms, also more noticable, albeit minute, hop bitterness as the temp raises.

Not a fan - the finish was too fizzy/spritzy and almost tasted sour to me?

Thick white head, pale yellow with a little cloudiness. Sweet flavor and a dry, hoppy finish.

pale yellow pour with a thick white head. nose of sour yeast, spices and honey. nice on the palate with a flavor of dried fruits, honey, yeast and a very carbonated finish.

Bottle at Järnet, Stockholm. Beautifully cloudy and a nice white head. Fruity and yeasty aroma. Spicy flavour and a dry hoppy finish. Tastes a bit like a hoppier version of Cantillon Cuvee de Champions.
