Bottle. Hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma of grass, citrus and with some light notes of "rubber". The taste was thin, with notes of rubber, grass, citrus and malt. A bit boring.

Ingen stor smak men trevlig frisk och med en balanserad beska. Trevligt matöl. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

500 ml bottle bought through Systembolaget. Pours hazy golden with a small creamy white head that clings to the glass while dissipating. Smell is sweet with fresh grass, sugar peas, gooseberries, orange zest and hints of caramel. Taste is sweet with fresh green vegetables, lemon zest, grass and hints of pine. Mouthfeel is clean and thin to medium bodied. Finish is bitter and tiny sweet with peas and grass. Very clear green pea / vegetable characteristics. Possibly a bad bottle...

En fyra månader gammal flaska vilket nog gör mig lite snällare i min bedömning. Den har hur som helst klarat sig helt okej. Blommig och citrusfruktig doft, frisk och fräsch, distinkt men ganska kortlivad beska. Välgjord.

Bottle. Hazy orange amber with a white soapy head that leaves nice thick lacings. Very muffled aroma with mainly an oily note with pine needles and plastic and some citrus in the background. Whats wrong here? Taste is much better with a fairly dry caramel maltiness and lots of citrus like orange, grapefruit and lemon with a pinch of apricot. Nice marked piney bitterness that stretches into the aftertaste with some nice underlying toasty toffee. Medium bodied with soft small bubbles. A very nice refreshingly citrusy pale ale. But whats up with the aroma?

500ml bottle. Pale gold, white head. Hoppy aroma, quite fruity, grapefruit, mango, apricot, spruce, yeast, malt. Dry, medium bodied, medium to high bitterness, lively CO2. Fruity taste, lots of citrusy hops, apricots, mango, grapefruit, pine resin. (2012-01-09)

courtesy of Per - hazy dark orange colour with a poor head retention; fairly fruity hoppiness with notes of pineapple and apricots; moderate carbonation, very tasty and quite full-bodied, clean palate; a solid but not aggressive bitterness; long fruity hoppy finish, quite dry with a lingering bitterness

(Bottle, Stockholm Beer Festival, 1 Oct 2011) Golden colour with foamy, white head. Fruity, malty nose with citrus, bread and biscuits. Malty, fruity taste with notes of citrus, grass, slightly grainy malt and a dry, hoppy finish with hints of citrus and grass. Medium body, quite dry. Quite nice and refreshing.

50cl bottle, courtesy of and shared with Gnoff. Dorée, blanche. Arôme belle note de citronnelle, pamplemousse mettant en avant un profile houblonné très agréable. En bouche, bière reste fruitée avec pas mal de citron pour une amertume qui reste modérée, belle présence de Centennial ajoutant une très belle amertume et un fini sec relevé.
