Amber. White head.
Rather sweet aroma with fruity, citric aroma.
A bit unbalanced in the hoppiness, but ok bitterness. Grassy and fruity.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 rickgordon (3815) - Göteborg, SWEDEN - FEB 23, 2007
UPDATED: FEB 24, 2007 On draught at The Rover, Göteborg.
Clear amber colour. Steady cottony foam. Sweetish, citrusy nose, with a dash of mandarine. Fantastic aroma. The flavour profile is hoppy and sweetish in good balance, the bitterness strikes you instantly and it lasts forever. One drawback maybe might be that the hops get a bit medicinal after, also preventing the flavours to step forward. Still - great beer!
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 ante (3374) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - FEB 21, 2007
Cask at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Kazy orange aååearance with a low white head. Juicy and fruity hop aroma of prange-peels, mango, lychee and crackers. Flavour starts fruity of mango and apricots with hints of crackers. Long and trally bitter aftertaste of grass and orange-peels. A tad more balanced than their Pale Ale, the malt character is quite deliciuos.

UPDATED: FEB 21, 2007 Draught at McKinley’s Inn, Stockholm. Pale amber, rich fluffy head. Rich perfumy, juicy lychee-like hop aroma. Sweet up front with some cookie malt flavour, rounded mouthfeel. Very hoppy. Lingering extremely bitter finish. This is hop juice, but still it feels more balanced than their Amarillo Pale Ale.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Marsiblursi (2952) - Göteborg, SWEDEN - FEB 16, 2007
(Draught) Pours amber. Fruity aroma with moastly grapefruit but also oranges, aprecot and hints of sweet pears. Undertones of caramelly, light syrupy malt and pine. Tiny notes of acetone. Still a pretty one dimentional flavour if you compare it to the old amarillo with tons of bittering hops, but a bit more fruity. Rather dry but also a bit syrupy to light sticky. Finish with full, 3 days ligering bitterness. Moore malty body in this one.
3.4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 gnoff (6317) - Mölndal, SWEDEN - FEB 5, 2007
UPDATED: FEB 6, 2007 (Draught at The Rover, Göteborg) Shady golden color, huge tan head. Big fresh sweet fruity hoppy Amarillo scent, nice! Citrus and grape smell also. Hoppy and bitter taste, also a slight bit astringent. Not really well balanced, at least not the way I like it. Smooth mouthfeel, high bitterness.
