Murky golden beer, thick white head. Smells of pine, a little grassy hop and pineapple. Flavour is initially soft and sweet with fruit but then a bit more oomph comes in, Sharper with some grapefruit and zesty citrus, a little banana. It's fresh and with a creamy feel and hides its strength quite well. I like this a lot.

(Can, 0.44 l - dates unreadable, from Alko, 20201204) The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had pine, resin and grass. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were pine, resin, pineapple, grass, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste had pine, pineapple,and bitterness. A delicious hoppy brew with balanced notes of hops.
