Pours a hazy orange with a giant white head. Aroma of orange and other citrus fruits dominate the nose. The flavor is a nice balance between sweet and sour, as well as a nice bicuity feel to it. The mouthfeel is creamy with a hint of spice. Very nice beer.

(Bottle, Monk’s Café, Stockholm, 2 Feb 2007) Amber colour, slightly hazy, with huge off-white head. Fruity nose with notes of apricots, orange, Seville orange and lots of spicy, flowery hops. Fruity taste with a nutty backbone (walnut?), notes of dried apricots, grapefruit and loads of spicy hops in the finish. Quite complex brew with a lovely spicy, hop character. Very nice!
