One of the best aromas ever! Delicious floral hoppy aroma and taste. this beer is outstanding.

Dark brown, almost see through, little white head. Aroma is grape fruity hops with a hint of sweetness. Body is light. Very drinkable. Very good hops in the aroma. Lots of grape fruit. Grassy. Some caramel notes. Very good supermarket beer.

Tap (Pikkulintu, Helsinki)
A whole range of aromas - everything from caramel to toffee, and having aspects of both demerara sugar and sugar syrup. There may have been a hint of fruitiness behind the fruit sugars that were there too. Nice rich red, small keggy head. Less sweet taste than the aroma, in fact it’s quite light considering. Almost watery in fact. A bit keggy and sweet, but all-in-all not bad. Some mushrooms and fatty hops in the finish.

(Draught at Pikkulintu, 20130121) The beer poured brown and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, malts, citricness and sweetness. Palate was quite light bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, sweetness, malts, pine and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty and bitter. Aroma was pleasant but the taste was too musty.

Flaske 0,33 l kjøpt på Eide handel. Drukket hjemme 20 Jan 13. Mørk gyldenbrun. Litt uklar. Høyt skum som daler sakte. Litt lacing. Deilig sitrusaroma. Smaken det samme. Litt tynn. Blir raskt bitter og holder seg slik lenge.
