Big offwhite head. Coppery body. Tropical fruit and citrusy hop aroma. Dry-sweetish fruity citric taste with resiny strawberry notes. Mid-bodied. Clean, fresh palate. Dry wooden citric aftertaste with metallic floral notes. Faintly astringent. Nice and highly drinkable, but not very exciting. Would have liked more body. (0.5l bottle, wine monopoly.)

500 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. Also available in Norway at Vinmonopolet. Bottle conditioned, ABV is 5.5%. Clear golden colour, big white head. Pleasant aroma of fruity American hops, notes of pineapple and other tropical fruits, also some citrus. The flavour has a substantial sweetness, malty and sugary notes, partly balanced by a noticeable hoppy bitterness, which becomes piney and resinous in the finish, slightly metallic in the aftertaste.

Flaske 0,5l kjøpt på Vinmonopolet i Tromsø. Uklar. Lys gylden på farge. Litt skyet. Høyt bobleskum som varer ei stund. Nøktern aroma med humle og fruktpreg. Smaken er kortvarig. Litt papir. Går fort over i en tørr bitter ettersmak som varer lenge. Litt fruktighet og karamell veldig sent i smaksbildet.

500 ml bottle. Clear golden body with a fine off-white head. Not to strong, but nice aroma of pure malt and citric fruity hops. Flavor is biscuit malty with a balanced and fruity bitterness. The bitterness is a bit discreet in the beginning and getting more citric and obvious during the bottle. Starting as a quite anonymous regular bitter this becomes more like a well crafted American pale ale by the end of the bottle, not bad at all.

Bottled@8BeerQuickPicnicSession (thanks to the craziest bartender in the world!). Golden colour, mediumsized creamy/foamy white head. Aroma is flowery and slightly tropical fruity hops, honey and wood. Flavour is wooden, slightly fruity and has some mild notes of tropical fruit. Some mild herbal notes along with bitteress in the finish.
