Bottled. A slightly hazy dark golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet mlaty with quite strong notes of hops swell as notes of grass and caramel. The flavor is sweet malty and very hoppy combined with notes of caramel, leading to a dry bitter finish.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours golden yellow with a little lacing head. Sweet, slight raisin aroma, fruity hops. Sweet and slight spiced, nice fruity hoppy flavour. Slight spiced finish.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of markgugs. Pours a slightly hazy, deep golden with a small, rough, off-white head. Very flowery and aromatic - almost perfumy - nose. Medium body, rather soft mouthfeel, lightly fruity, some peach notes and a citrusy edge. The finish is fairly bitter. Quite interesting and well composed. 180907

Draft @ Taco Mac Metropolis, Atlanta, GA. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. Has a fruity malty weak caramel aroma with hoppy hints. Fruity malty grainy weak hoppy flavor. Has a fruity malty caramel finish with hoppy hints.

Deep blond color. Very nice hoppy aroma, having both the crispy malt, perfumy hops and fruitness. Good mouthfeel, some sweetness, cood malt and caramel flavor, with a touch of fudge; good hopping, a bit fruity too. I would compare it to Jämtlands Hell: sweeter, fruiter and less bitter. Very good.

(Bottle) Pours a clear yellow body with a large off-white head. Aroma of florals and citrus. Flavor of mild hops and caramel.

Rich golden colour with a thin head. Herbal hop nose with pear-like notes. Fairly rich hop with some cloying sweet malts. Finishes sweeter than I’d prefer and seems to really lack polish.

Clear golden with big off-white head. Aroma is medium sweet, sharp herbal. Taste is medium sweet, sharp herbal, some lemon, some caramel, some pepper. Medium body, strange in that it seems partly crisp, partly sticky.

12oz bottle best before May06-pours a big foamy, 2 finger high then rocky white head with clear gold color. Aroma is citrus, pine, grain. Taste, initially pine, sweet grain and harsh hops seemed to clash & not blend at all. After about ½ a glass, it mellows and blends nicely.
