Bottle. Clear golden pour, thin head. Quite held back altogether, there are some herbaly hops, metallic notes and faint malty backbone but it seems to be it.

RB backlog. Rather pleasant but kinda flat aroma of oranges, grains, yeast. Medium sweet and a little tart, not much else. Slick body with soft carbonation.

0,5 l paper wrapped bottle. Pours more or less clear pale yellow with a finger of dense medium lasting off white head. Plenty of lacing. Aroma of citrus, grassy, mild floral and herbal notes, some malt somewhere in the background, rather sweet all together. Once properly warm there is a decent amount of pollen aroma from pilsner malt. Taste is medium sweet, light bitter and very slightly sour. Body is on the light side, texture almost watery, carbonation average. Finish is rather short and unremarkable, some hop notes, a bit of pilsner malt and some mild bitterness. Unremarkable beer, but surprisingly drinkable and completely non offensive...

Paper wrapped bottle 50 cl. Pours golden with the slightest haze and a small, white head. Very vague citrusy aroma, but it does give a little freshness. Medium body, fruity sweet but not sticky. Hardly any bitterness. Kinda vague if you're a hop head, very drinkable if you're not. 041018

500ml bottle wrapped in paper, thanks to djoeye for sharing. Hazed golden body under a firm white head, clingy lacing. Modest aroma of herbal hops with a citric note. Taste of dough and mid-sweet fruits. Distant bittersweet ending. Accepted. (PivotekaH7, Tromsø 12.07.2018).

Bottle Quite drinkable ale. Bit more fizzy and slightly sweetish accompanied with soapy tastes but let's say it's okay and certainly one of best products brewed in Union.
