3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
0.5l bottle @ Biskopen, Bergen. Pours a cloudy orange/golden body with a surprisingly low and a bit disappointing head. This could be because I got it served in a pint glass and not a "normal" wit-glass. Aroma of some coriander, cloves and quite sweet. Nice and refreshing with a wheaty taste , some orange zest, fade peppery and some yeast.

Bottle. Flowers in the nose, like mountains in the spring. Taste is milder than expected - orange, lemon. More sweet than bitter. This is a nice beer!

3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
A cloudy, almost foggy green/yellow colour as it pours.
Got nice aromas of spices, a hint of sitrus and coriander. The fruitynes of the beer is alittle overripe not too much.
On the palate it´s way more orange then on the nose. The coriander (seeds) is also present in a nice bitter ending. A hint of nutmeg is also there.
Overall a well made beer, and I´m glad the norvegians start buying beer with more taste than the common lagers! Go Norway!

UPDATED: NOV 19, 2011 Tap at Paradiso Georgetown. Poured a slightly hazy white/straw with a nice, fluffy, meringue head. Decent white lace. Aroma of orange peel perfume, fresh dough, orange mint tic-tacs, laundry detergent, dryer sheets. A bit perfumey moving to near chemical and phenolic. The body on this is very nice- ultra light, dry, lightly spiced, no sugar, no cloying. Refreshing.
500mL thanks to Travlr. Pours a hazy deep yellow cream with a larger, white head with large formation and webby, large lacing. Nose is quite an upgrade from the tap version: hug chamomile, orange creamsickle, phenol plastic comes through however. Huge herbal spices and orange potpourri. Taste is richer, nice herbal spice, orange creamsickle. Not bad at all. 7/4/7/4/14=3.6
