440 ml can, from Vinmonopolet Sandnes Kvadrat. ABV is 8.0%. Hazy yellow to orange colour, large white head. Aroma of papaya, pineapple and other tropical fruits, also some citrus and pine. Flavour with the same elements, a moderate bitterness in the finish.

Milky yellow when poured. The head is initially quite large but quickly subsides. The aroma tries to be fruity but becomes more vegetal. Sharp citrus flavor with hints of diesel. Bitter finish. Far from as juicy and fruity as beers of the this type can be.

0,44 julegave fra Håkon: uklar skittengul med fint skum som varer lenge. Supermykt og velsmakende anslag med aprikoser/aprikosmarmelade, citrus, pensjonsfrukt, papaya og granskudd i den solide maltkroppen som Golden Promise gir. Mersmak i velkjent Salikatt-kvalitet.

Punchy fruity with hits of tangerine and mango, pineapple and succulent juocy peach flesh, hop spice, some citrus peel, set upon a backbone of semi sweet creamy malts, dank sided hoppy finish. Lovely.
