"A light and refreshing beer. A surprisingly full mouth-feel with a superior balance of malt and hop, and a rewarding fruit finish."

The aroma is light but perfumated sweet and malty. The color is golden and it has a fine though disappearing head. The flavor is sweet, malty, and rather bitter. This beer is a bit light in the palate - but really good for a 3.8% ABV.

(Bottle 50 cl) Fully golden, clear beer with a rather high carbonation. The very good aroma-hops spices up a traditional bitter proving that also a low alcohol beer can contain a lot of flavour. Very hoppy. 090504

Deep golden. Flowey aroma. Light bodied, soapy mouthfeel, hints of vanilla. Citrusy and bitter finish. Flavourful and refreshing.
