This is a beer whose flavors are average and a labelling has that seems to promising. Unfortunately, that is not the case.

Flaska från beernavigator. Bärnstensfärgad, klar vätska, lågt skum. Doft av godisaprikoser, fenoler, belgisk jäst. Smaken lätt, torr, fruktig men man förstår varför belgarna generellt brygger starkare och sötare öl när man dricker den här för dofterna har ingen kropp som hjälper smakerna att lyfta. Istället blir den en lätt belgisk amber ale med lite fruktig och karamellsmak som känns ganska anonym. Helt okej ändå.

Smak och doft av humle, malt, aprikos, äpple med toner av karamell och citrus. Lätt kropp, fruktig med trevlig beska.

Solid Belgian pale ale. Has nice biscuity notes a mild presence of the hallmark Belgian yeast strains. Touch of hops. Feels almost like a Belgian version of an English pale ale. Decent. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Nice beer. Doesn’t have something outstanding, but has a nice balance of all the typical flavors with some fruitiness and mild bitter to it. But considering the price i won’t be drinking this one on regular basis.

33cl bottle. Appearance: amber colored beer, nice stable off white head. Nose: little fruity, nice hops, little dry, malts, maybe some lemon. Taste: lots of malts, some caramel, quite some grains, somewhat metalic?

Starts off with really nice cloudy orange colour and good head, but overall falls a little short of expectations for brewery. Some florals in aroma with a little malt, some sugary yeast. Taste leans too much on the side of sourness though - unbalanced overall. Bottle.

Bottle. Pours deep golden with a big off-white head. Aroma of malt, yeast, some fruitiness and spices. Flavor is sweet and fruity with some malt, spices and nuts. Medium body, average carbonation.

Bottle. A big, dense, off-white head forms over an hazy, dark amber colored body. Lacings occur. Lots of dried fruits in the aroma, hints of cellar and some beef stock. Yeast hints too, and some berries. Sweet, nicely bittered flavor with dried fruits, a nice impact from the yeast, and some caramel notes. A tad thin on the palate, but with pleasant carbonation. Lasting finish with plums, dried fruits and some caramel hints. A quite tastefull and pleasant one, but it’s a bit thin on the palate, even though it’s as low as 6% ABV. 130504
