(Cask at Oliver Twist, Stockholm, 9 Nov 2008) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity nose with notes of orange peel, apricots and earthy hops. Fruity taste with caramel, orange, apricots, hints of malt sweetness and generous doses of earthy hops in the finish. Medium body, balanced sweetness. Nice and refreshing. In short: bitter and earthy orange.

Teabag and musty wet paper aroma. Sweet starchy body, some popcorn (not sweet or salty, just the kernels). Some retronasal glue on swirling it around the tongue. Stealth hops - bitter and build up slowly. Leaves a pleasant sweet malt and bitter finish. Well balanced, but simple.
