An unclear greenish yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of apples and wheat - and so is the flavor. Good for refreshment, but not much more.

In bottle; I would agree with some of the comments about this one being weird. Taste was tart apple, with an apple cider kind of thing going on, ending with the taste of a Belgium wit beer ... weird. I do not think I would buy this one again

Bottle at Dahlbergs. Helsingborg, March 2012.
Thanks to PeaceRich for sharing these. Aroma of dry paper, dust, kinda spicy with prominent apple notes. Not to good. The taste is weird and filled with sweet sourish taste of apple juice. Can’t say I found it good at all.

Unclear pale yellow, big fizzy foamy white head. Spicy yeasty fruity aroma. Sweet sugary mild apple juice taste. Some spice and yeast. Lively carbonation. Sweet fruity finish. Great desert beer. LF (Lagerboy Friendly)

Bottle from Meny Liertoppen. Pours hazy light yellow with a small white head. Aroma of apples, citrus with hints of spices and wheat. Sweet and fruity with some acidity. Strange taste, but drinkable.

Bottle from Vaaland, Bryne. Pours hazy light golden with a big frothy snow white head. Aroma of perfumed apples, wheat and spice. Taste is sweet applejuice, cloying and a real turn off.

Bottle. Golden colour with a white head. Aroma is apple, malt, citrus. Flavour is apple, malt, citrus, spices. Ordinary beer.

0.33 L bottle, picked up @Jacobs på Holtet. Big platina blond head. Unclear, the palest straw yellow body. Aroma is light acidic-sweet, more lemon than apple. Taste is fairly crisp, but with an atificial fruity acidity. Skinny body. Sparkling carbonation. Not a world classic, but has certain refreshing qualities.

Clear, light yellow to white coloured fruit beer with average carbonation and a large white head. Fruity citrus apple hinted aroma. Medium fruity palate. Finish is light, little fruity hints (green apple) with a sweet-fruit sour touch to it. Nothing special.

Bottle, bought @ Bier Tempel, Brussels.
Pale yellow pour, big, frothy, white and light fizzy head. Aroma has sweet apple juice, some wheat and light citric notes. High carbonation, actually a quite fair light oily mouthfeel. Flavour, though, is very sweet, very sugary, some clear apple candy notes, light citric sharpness as well. Very, very sweet.

Fruktsødme og fruktsyre med litt utydelig preg av eple, smakte litt utvannet.
