3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle @ Baran Cafe, Bergen. Slightly hazy golden body with a medium creamy head. Aroma is a light, fragrant floral whiff, with hints of ale yeast and toffee. Taste is pale malts and ale yeast, with citrusy floral tones and dry, bitter hops for the finish. Fresh mouthfeel. An OK beer, and probably a good session ale, though not outstanding.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
Pours a nice orange/gold with a thick white head. Aroma is quite fruity and dry - peach/nectarines and orange, reasonably malty. Taste is smooth, some citrus, nutty bitterness, long aftertaste. Really nice, very drinkable. Could easily session this.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Toasty hops, nice golden color (the label doesn’t lie) with a soft nice head. Taste stays for quite a time, a really good beer.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 10/20
from old notes Hazy peach-amber under a white scruff. Toasty, bready malts support bright grapefruit and dank nectarines. Spicy hops engage immediately, pale and nutty malts underneath, finishing wet and citric with a woolen afterthought. Slick and fat in the mouth; minimal carbonation.
Refreshing and bright without being crisp—interesting and drinkable.
50 cl bottle, best before June 2009.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Sweet orange, barley malt, and grass hops aroma. Golden yellow color with large head. Sweet orange blossom, barley malt and lightly bitter hay hops flavor. Nice solid beer.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
The beer pours a golden color with a white head. The aroma is not good at all. I get some bready malt and some perfume from the hops, but the overwhelming aroma is butter. The flavor is just the same. I get a ton of butter with some biscuit malt, perfume and flowers. The butter is what stands out and it is not inviting. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
(Bottle, Bishop’s Arms Vasagatan, Stockholm) Golden colour with frothy, off-white head, leaving traces of lacing. Fruity nose with notes of citrus, grass, peaches and fresh floral hops. Fruity taste with citrus, apricots, grainy malt and fresh floral hops in the finish. Balanced body, fairly dry, with balanced sweetness. Not really exceptional, but nice and refreshing.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours a bit hazy orange golden with nice off white head leaving very nice lacing. Fruity sweet, fresh bread and grorass aroma. Crisp hoppy flavor with hints of malty sweetness.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle: Poured a golden color ale with a light haze and a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of floral cereal with light dry hops is mildly enjoyable. Taste is refreshing and easily quaffable with notes of cereal with light residual sweetness and some floral undertones. Body is slightly more full then average with good carbonation. Limited character but refreshing notes makes this an enjoyable session beer.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle as a gift, shared with friendz.
Poured a deep golden, the head remained thinly on top, carbonation was soft.
Fruity, spicy smell..
Tiny crisp start, flavour of citrus fruit.
The aroma was dominated by the floral and spicy hops, finish was spicy, bitter and dry, which remained nicely.
Easy drinkable, light bodied and well enjoyable ale.
