3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Sampled at Akkurat. Stockholm, September 28th, 2011.
Sweet and fruity aromas with a dominating sense of passion fruit, peaches and apricot. Light clean body with a sweet taste of apricots, citrus fruits and hops.
0.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20
This is the most effervescent beer ever, i would almost not even call it liquid, just gas in a bottle. It is probably old, the taste is actually better than one would expect, but the carbonation is at an absurd level.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottled as ’White Ale’. Lively carbonation, coriander and lemon cleaner evident from the first. Hazy pour of yellow with golden insides and a large, sudsy white head. Taste is lightly soured and tart. Lemon and crushed coriander. Grain of salt for this rating - quite possibly a bad bottle - but even given that, I’d probably have it again.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
The spices are just a bit too strong in this one but otherwise it’s a pretty plain white ale.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
A- Body is a semi-cloudy thin straw yellow that pours with a small foamy white head that fades quickly to a fairly thick collar. Some lacing is left behind in the glass. Cloudiness is uniform throughout.
S-Nose is on-the-mark for a wit. Coriander and citrus shine though as the main characters with a yeast presence behind it.
T-Coriander and spiciness comes through the most upfront but a citrus flavor is also noticeable. The yeast comes through in finish as pretty sour.
P-Low carbonation and light body. A bit thin-but not bad.
O-I was pleasantly surprised by this offering. It’s a little on the sour side-but I like that about it. I was expecting this brew to be mediocre but it’s pretty good and I’ll have it again.

3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Light fruity wheat aroma. Hints of orange and lemon. Smells very summery. Slight hint of banana.
Straw-yellow color. Cloudy as hell, mostly due to the stagnant sediment that’s flaoting in it. I’m sure it’s fine, but not appetizing.
A fruity hefeweizen. Has a sweet banana flavor, with a slightly sour finish. Orange peel. Hints of lemon at the end.
The feel is light and fizzy. None of the sediment causes any grit or other texture. Perfect thirst-quenching feel for summer. A nice, light-bodied hefeweizen. Very fruity and pleasant.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20

4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
poured into a tulip glass. light refreshing beer with a clean almost creamy taste. an overall good beer.
2.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
12 oz bottle served in a tulip. Pour was a bleak, cloudy gold with very little thin white head. Nose is yeast, old/rotting celery, and spices (especially ginger). Taste is very much the same, except with a light touch of citrus rinds. Not much to say on this one, other than I am not big on the style in general.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours a cloudy yellow with a soapy, dramatic head. The aroma is fairly inviting with candy lemon drops coming to mind. Thin to medium palate with a nice burst of carbonation. The flavor doesn’t quite live up to the aroma, but it isn’t bad. Sweet citrus and a little bit of a punch of spice. Not bad.
