29.01.2012. 0,5l Bottle. vinmonopolet.no. Hazy and unclear pale brown colour with white head. Lively carbonated for ae English pale ale. Aroma is malty with spruce hops. Medium tpo thin body gives a mouthfeel that is a little thin. Nice flavours of malt and bitter spicy spruce. Bitter aftertaste with notes of fresh green spruce shoots. Gets better the moore you drink and I think this is a very good ale.

Bottle from systembolaget. Pours cloudy, orange/brown, with small offwhite head. Big hoppy aroma of citrus, pine and grass. A steady body for a pale ale, citric pile bitterness, medium fruityness and newly cut grass. Farely bitter, fresh and rather dry. A fullbodied pale all, close to an IPA. Well balanced and well hopped. A really positive surprice from a brewery that have disappointed me most times so far.
