Dec 1, 2009 Bottled 50cl. Clear pale golden with a nicely remaining lacing white head. Fantastic expressive nose. Wonderfully hoppy with hints of gooseberry, a huge amount of strawberry, dried apricot, lemon peel, sweat and pale malts showing up- suddenly mint and liquorice allsorts emerge. The strawberry component is rather present in the taste too. Nice hop profile. Good bitterness. White pepper, hay, baguette and pear sneaking in. Complex. Licorice and earthy hops showing up on the swallow leading to a dryish finish which is reminiscent of rose and lemon peel. A top notch Golden Ale. I reveled in every sip.

Aug 20, 2002 Deep golden. Flowey aroma. Light bodied, soapy mouthfeel, hints of vanilla. Citrusy and bitter finish. Flavourful and refreshing.

Dec 23, 2002 Updated: Nov 6, 2003Bottled. Straw gold, moderate head and a little too much condition. Pine needle and hop resin nose reminded me of Deuchars, sweet grainymalt and good balancing hop flavours and a good quenching hop bitter finish. Did I mention Deuchars?

Apr 18, 2009 Big offwhite lasting head. Yellow body with light carbonation. Fruity floral mealy hoppy aroma with citric malty pea notes. Fantastic harmony. Dry-sweetish floral citric peas taste with peppery mealy grassy notes. Smooth mouthfeel. Clean, fresh palate. Fullish body. Dry chalky floral straw and malts aftertaste with pea and biscuit notes. Excellent and highly drinkable. (0.5l bottle, Centra, Oslo.)

Apr 6, 2009 Bottle (in), pouring a light golden colour with a foamy white head. A nice and healthy fruity hop aroma on a bed of juicy malt. A light mouthfeel, with the hops doing a good job of giving it a fruity flavour while still leaving it very sessionable. Just enough bitterness in the finish to bring you back for another sip. Surprised this hasn’t rated higher.

May 17, 2006 A good looking golden beer, nice white head lasting well! A well hopped brew, fruity with a slight sweetness. A gentle bitterness fills the mouth after a few seconds and lingers. Well balanced, clean and flavoursome, adequate strengthwise ( this bottle is 3.8%) and allows several bottles to be quaffed without major illeffects.

Apr 2, 2009 500 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 4.0%. Crystal clear pale golden colour, big to moderate white head. Moderate aroma of fruity hops, hint of apricots. Light bodied and refreshing: The flavour has distinct fruity hops on a moderately sweet bakground of malts, ending in a well balanced resinous and grapefruity bitterness. A nice little summer ale this one.
