Sep 18, 2008 Hazy light yellow, small lacing head. Spritzy, citric wheaty aroma. Little soapiness. Wheaty flavor, much less fruits, little grapefruit like strong hops. Yeast kills the freshness, and doesn’t add anything to the flavor. Overall nicely hoppy little wit, not that typical.

Smaskifa (16), Oslo, Norway
Aug 24, 2008 0,5 l bottle. Pours a nice white head, foggy pale yellow colour, medium carbonation. Aroma of hops, orange and citrus, some spices. Very fresh taste, lots of orange which gives it a rather bitter flavour of orange-peel, some spices way back there somewhere. Mix of hoppy and citrus finish, slighlty bitter. Refreshing and nice beer, works well with or without seafood.
