Bottled @ de Molen tasting, small sample. Almost clear yellow color, short head. Aroma is a bit grassy and flowery hop, some grainy malt. Probably not the freshest example and it clearly has hurt the beer. Bit watery in taste, some bitterness. Bit watery stuff for now. Probably was a lot better from bottle and even better than that from cask.

Clear blond appearance. Aroma of pale malts and a touch of soap. Very fresh but light tasting. The balance is good. Light carbonation but quite a creamy feel.

Bottle at the March 2014 De Molen monthly tasting. Poured a crystal clear light amber with a frothy white head and some broken lace. The aroma is lime citrus. The flavour is light sweet, very light bitter with a light, watery malt hop citrus palate. Medium to light bodied with soft carbonation. Smelled great but the enjoyment rapid faded.

bottle from saveur-biere. Hazy golden colour, mid-sized white head. Aroma of roses and tropcial fruit. Light-bodies, shy malty base yet it transports the intensive aromatic hope very well.

Flaske 0,5l fra Kilpishalli. Drukket hjemme 9 Apr 13. Lys gylden. Uklar. Høyt luftig skum som varer lenge. Mye lacing. Pent! Herlig ferskenaroma. Smaken det samme med tillegg av ulike frukter. Blir litt tørr etter hvert. Innholdsrik. Litt bunnfall. Verdensrekord i smak/% ?

Pale golden colour with a frothy white head with good lasting and nice lacework. Aroma is citrusy with some pine notes, slighty malty. Flavor has a decent bitterness with a good presence of citrus notes, some grapefruit as well, light maltiness. The final has a good bitterness with a dry mouthfeel.

Cask at the York Tap. Very pale yellow pour, thin white head. Very floral aromas, some yeastiness too. Slips down like water. Would like a bit more character to it.

33cl bottle from Stockbridge Tap. Appearance - very pale, almost white. Definitely lighter than golden. Some head. Nose - yoghurty, the yeast is dominant. Maybe some lemon, not really any fruit though not unpleasant. Taste - more lemon yoghurt with a hint of pale malt. Palate - very light bodied, and texture is similar and the finish is dry. Overall - a good effort to make a beer under 4% that has some taste, thought his is still very much yeast dominated. I’ll reach for a Jarl or an Orkney Best before this.
