Närke Sim-Ko

Bottled at the brewery. Hazy golden, small head. Juicy citric nose. Dryish and crisp, fairly light bodied. Highly refreshing with strong juicy citrus flavour. Long bitter, lighltly resiny finish. An excellent thirst quenching pale ale.

Draught. Pale golden colour, slightly hazy, mediumsized and longlasting white fluffy head. Aroma is citrus fruity hoppy with some mild flowery and yeasty notes. Flavour is berries, citrusfruits. Aftertaste is dominated by fruits and some caramelly notes. Excellently balanced.

(Draught) Pours light hazy golden orange. Hoppy citrus aroma of grapefruit, tangerine, juicy orange and rhubarb. Undertones of spruce/pine, grass and black currant. Also a light malt sweetness of sponge cake and some plum like yeast. Maybe even some apricots in the background. Juicy and citric flavour with tones of grapefruit and oranges. Undertones of black currant and some malty sweetness. Clean and soft mouthfeel. Medium bitter with a dryish finish. Light bodied. Maybe one of the cleanest beers I have ever tried but still a very lively and playful creation. Thank you Närke.

Draught at MacKinlays’s Inn, Stockholm. Pours out in a clear golden colour with a rich white head. Hoppy aroma of citric fruit, grass, pine-needles and melon. Dryish fruity and hoppy taste of grapefruit, grass, pine-needles and lemon-zest. Long bitter finish of grapefruit.

(Draught@Pikkulintu, Helsinki) Hazy yellow-golden with a small, lasting head. Crisply hoppy aroma with pine and some toffee. Piney, crisply hoppy flavor with some balancing, toffeeish maltiness. Medium-bodied, dry and quite low-carbonated palate. Very nice for the ABV - a bit less hoppy version of Bedarö Bitter.
