On tap @ Henrik. This is a cloudy yellow-golden one with a small light islandy and off-white sidesticking top. It has a nice aroma of soft malts, biscuits and hints of citrus. It’s average to soft on the carbonation and soft oily on the mouthfeel. The taste has mild citrus grapefruit, canned sweet peaches and a dry finish. Some buttery tones also. Really tasty and fruity for a pilsner. Good stuff! 13.10.2012

On tap @ Henrik, Bergen. Hazy, near-milky body, small white head. Nose is Saaz hops, grass, flowers and hints of grain. Taste is floral honey tones, grass, hints of butterscotch which is rather suitable, actually. Full body, soft carbonation. Very nice and highly drinkable, and a real surprise from Søgaard.

On tap at Henrik, Bergen. A bit hazy and a dark straw-yellow colour with a small white compact head. Interesting aroma of sweet candy, pale malt, tropical fruits, grains, wet hay and citrus. More pale malt in the flavour along with grains, grass, hops and some leather. Slick and nice mouthfeel, and a light to medium bitterness. A good and tasteful pilsener.

Draft tap on Henriks in Bergen. Mild and wellbalanced, but lacks bitterness in my eyes. Some banana, berries (and timmy?) in the aroma. Soft palate.

Pours clear golden with a small white head leaving lace. Aroma is malty grassy hoppy a bit fruity and sweet. Flavor much similar, good bitterness and hoppy touch. Finishes bitter malty.

From Tap in the Bryghus/ It tastes sweet-sour, a little bit malty-herb and watery. Not my favourite. -/4/4/4/-/4
