Pours cloudy golden color with a small head. Aroma of wheat, spices, some citrus fruits and yeast. Flavor of yeast, wheat, spices and citrusy fruits. A bit weird but decent.

Straw-yellow colour. Floral aroma with herbs maybe? Taste is very sweet, reminds me of candy sugar. There are also notes of cereal and leaves. Oily texture and some alcohol in the finish. A bit unusual, but a nice experience.

Bottle @ Camons tasting. Hazy orangey yellow with a white head. Aroma is sweet, malty, wheaty, yeasty and spicy. Flavor is very sweet and moderate bitter. Sweet finish with warming alcohol. Oily. 120712

Bottle @ home. Pours slightly hazy Dark yellow with a fading white head. Aroma of wheat, caramel, flowers, spice, light sourness, booze. Flavor is wheat, honey, sugar, spice, booze. Medium to full body, oily mouthfeel, soft carbonation. 120712

Bottled. Pours slightly hazy and deep golden with a medium sized off-white head. Leaving a fair lacing on the glass. Nose of spices, yest and caramel. Sweet flavor with yeast, alcohol and notes of fruit + spices. Medium to full vbodied, oily texture and soft carbonation. Ends up with some alcol and bitter notes.

Very alcoholic, which gives this a nice sweetness. On the other hand, the alcohol is pretty strong and apparent, possibly a bit much.

Bottle @ Rene’s house, courtesy of Rasmus40. Thanks R! Hazy, golden orange appearance with a small white head. Somewhat syrupy, very rich wheat malty, floral, banana, rich citrusy aroma. Thick and powerful, rich wheat malty, quite spicy yeasty, banana, orange, floral, very sweet flavor. Pretty intense and potent with the booze showing up fairly prominently.

Bottle. Cloudy golden body, creamy white head. Flowery aroma, with malts, cocriander I think, hay. taste of wheat, peach, sugars. Had this head to head with Dark Force, the Dark one wins, but on its own it’s a really good beer

Bottle from Vinmonopolet, Vika (Brewed: 2010-07-22) Pours slightly hazy golden with a nice white head. Lightly furity araoma with whead, some hops and hints of alcohol. Sweet with light floral flavours and some bitterness in the finish. Quite nice wheat ale, but the high alcohol content is a quite noticable. I think I enjoyed it more when it was fresh. (2012-05-26)
