<i>Bottled.</i> Orange coloured and nicely hazy with brief creamy head. Subdued apricot and grapefruit aroma. Richly, yet with straightforward malt profile. Graprfuit finish with good bitterness.

deep orange colour, dry hoppiness, orange aftertaste - good but by far not the best example from this style

Pours canary yellow. Nice aroma of hops, citrus, and slight yeast. Tastes and finishes very hoppy, with a good balance.

&#40;Stockholm Beer Festival 2003&#41; Nice amber color, not much head. Aroma is hoppy, with some nut. Hoppy flavor, but nothing special
