imdownthepub (8470) - Banbury, Oxfordshire, ENGLAND - AUG 18, 2010
Bottled, 500ml from M&S, Summertown, Oxon. Gold with white head. Initially quite bubbly, carbonated, but it settled down to quite a fresh tasting beer, light malts with a tangy hop character, lemony, lagery just with a little more depth. Nicely made beer and definitely worth a try.

RuneStumo (1707) - FØRRESFJORDEN, NORWAY - AUG 6, 2010
06.08.2010, 0,5l Bottle bought in York, UK - Thanks Trine my dear wife! The label says this is a "Seasonal guest". Golden yellow colour. Clear with a thin layered white head. Aroma is dominated by hops and bitterness. There is not to much malt, and flavour and aroma is secured by a nice hoppiness. Lively carbonated. Bitter lasting aftertaste.
