Pours hazy golden with average white head. Grassy notes on the aroma. medium sweetness, lightly bitter in the taste but overall a bit water and with lack of character. Light body, thin feel, average to soft carnonation and a short finsh. Boring.

2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 OleR (4247) - Oslo, NORWAY - APR 26, 2011
Full pint at the brewpub. A layer if gray-shaded white bubbles, upon a misty dark gold colored body. Straw-like and grassy hops, a note of creamed caramel and butter to the nose. Taste is fairly sweet and caramel-accented. Again some buttery malts. A fine underlying hop bitterness is there for balancing. Light to medium full. Oily texture. Caramelly malts and mild bitterness in the finish. Seems there’s some diacetyl working in here? A tad on the sweet side for my likings. Yet a drinkable beverage.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 Gr0ve (2038) - Oslo, NORWAY - APR 26, 2011
1 pint draught at the pub. Golden with a slight haze. Medium-sized white fine-laced head. Coarse bubbles. Gentle floral hops. Light malty flavours. Grainy. Balanced by a refreshing straightforward hop bitterness. Bitterness lingers all the way to the finish. Easy drinking beer that is not particularly
complex.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 KnutAlbert (5186) - Oslo, NORWAY - APR 18, 2011
On tap at the brewpub. A hazy golden beer. Fruit and yeast in the nose. Malt, nuts, rough bitter hops, leaving a resin aftertaste. I don’t mind the bitterness, but there is a slightly stale feel.
