0,33 boks delt med skibsrederen under båtpuss på Fridtjofen, juli-18: lett uklar lys gylden med ok skum. Pirrende duft av citroner, ananas og surblad. Friske fraspark i smaken, så dette er en vellykket pøse-ipa med lav voltstyrke. Frisk citrus i ettersmaken. Svært lettdrikkelig.

Can shared with JMD on board Fridtjofen 04.07.18. Hazy straw colour. Fine taste of lemon juice, lime juice, sorrel and pilsner malt. Balanced and refreshing.

33cl can from the Beer52 box for May. A slightly hazy straw coloured pour with a tight cream coloured head; rather weak tropical fruit aroma; thin in the mouth with a tropical fruit squash taste, predominantly pineapple; then a bready finish that is lifted by some gingery spice.

Hazed golden color with a fine head. Good lacing. Looks good. Decent intensity in the aroma. Fine carbonation level. Easy and pleasant to drink. Ok balanced sweetness. A bit thin texture. Fruity, malty and mild hoppy flavor. Ok session ale in the heat.

hazy golden beer, decent frothy white head though that soon disappears. Smells of grass, pine and tropical fruit. Tastes of the same, with a bit of dry maltiness and some smooth caramel. This is a superb session beer and you could really drink this all day.

Can from Appellation Wines Comely Bank. Appearance - golden with a generous fluffy head. Nose - canned pineapple, meadow flowers and an underlying nettle/resin thing. Taste - melon, pineapple and then a tasty dry grassy finish. Palate - light bodied, creamy and long and dry on the finish. Overall - lovely balance, this one!

Can from Cork & Cask, Edinburgh. It pours bright golden with a decent white head. The aroma is doughy white bread, touch of butter, grainy, grass andlemon. The taste is dry, fairly harsh bitterness, pithy, soapy citrus, soda water, grassy, lemongrass, graininess, minerals and tannin with a lingering dry finish. Light body and moderate, foamy carbonation. A bit harsh, grainy and watery. Not a great combo really.

Can at home in Hackney - care of Matteo! Pours clear yellow-gold with a frothy, pure white head. The nose has some pithy lemon, citrus peel, hay. Light sweet flavour, fairly buttery, with a bit of grassy bitterness, doughy pale bread, some further citrus peel. Light bodied with average, massaging carbonation. Finishes with more grassy bitterness, lemon rind, more buttery notes, straw, husky pale grains. Not the best.
