660ml bottle pours a slightly hazy straw color with a finger of white head that leaves some decent lacing on the glass. Aroma is citrus and pine with some light grains and hints of pineapple. Taste is a citrus and pine hop bitterness with some light malty and fruity sweetness with a hint of tart from the pineapple. Very nicely balanced brew with a light body and moderate carbonation. A fully flavored beer which satisfies the palate while being easy to drink. Very well done.

Palme (2234) - Bergen, NORWAY - MAY 8, 2013
0.66l bottle. This is a light blurry bright golden one with a nice medium sized just off-white top that’s lacing nicely down the sides of the glass. It has a fresh, definitely hoppy and fruity nose. Soft pine, spruces, lots of peaches and some pineapple as well. Impressive aroma. It has a really lightdrinkable and somewhat thin mouthfeel with a soft carbonation level. It’s somewhat dry, I get lots of citrus and grapefruits in the taste. Bitter grapefruit, some minerals, more grassy than the aroma and traces of fruits in the finish. As mentioned it’s really light and easy to drink. High quenching potential, but that "golden" thing is disturbing a bit, even if it’s just my personal preferences. All in all not a bad one this. 28.03.2013

Davros (1473) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - MAR 17, 2013
Pours pale amber with a small head. Nose shows grassy, earthy hops, some resinous notes, honey and plain sweet malt. Pretty hoppy flavours, big pine and grapefruit along with some biscuity malt. Could use more carbonation. Pretty easy-drinking stuff.

Bottle. A golden ale if an American or a hop-addict home brewer made it. A nice golden ale with a bathtub of grapefruit. Very tasty

stefannilssons (789) - SWEDEN - FEB 26, 2013
Det här var en lite oväntad och intessant öl som var otroligt läskande. Smaken var fylld till bredden med frisk syra, citrus och passionsfrukt. Slutsats: hyfsad öl men sjukt kul att dricka.

hawthorne00 (1852) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - FEB 1, 2013
Bottle, 12C. 4.3% ABV. Just hazy pale gold with a white head. Citrus, tropical and cut grass aroma. Light-bodied, lowish carbonation. A little sweet hay can’t wait to get out of the way of the Kiwi hop flavours - they’re very bright with oranges, grapefruit, gooseberry, mango, light passionfruit and lawn clippings. Finish is dry and quite bitter. Straight-ahead refreshment; lovely use of Kiwi hops.

johninmelb (1003) - Bristol, Gloucestershire, ENGLAND - JAN 12, 2013
Yum. Punchy and fresh nose with loads of mango, papaya and pepper. Pours a hazy pale gold. Flavour is fat and fiery with notes of grapefruit, roasted meat, more pepper and tons of pine needles. And pine sap. Finish is dry, coarse and long with a hoppy crunchiness that belies the beer’s strength. Hugely refreshing and hugely moorish(sp). Ace.
