If you could order them at the bar; why would you order anything else? This sparkling ale pours golden yellow with a refreshing botanical aroma. Cascade hops and gooseberries invigorate and revitalize the pallet.

Bottled @O’Haras (BB 03/2011)
Clear golden color, small steady white head. Zesty, citrusy-fruity elderflower aroma. Citrusy, some bready notes, lemon grass - maybe hints of ginger. A bit empty finish.

(Bottle, Bishop’s Arms Vasagatan, Stockholm) Pale golden colour with frothy, white head, leaving traces of lacing. Malty, fruity, slightly herbal nose with notes of citrus, lemon peel, freshly cut grass, honey and elderflowers. Fruity, slightly malty taste with grass, citrus and zesty hints of elderflowers and herbs. Gentle grassy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, fairly sweet. The herbal touch gets a bit sharp, but it’s a tasty and refreshing beer.

Bottled (From bierzwerg.de). Yellowish golden colour, with a small white head. Aroma is caramel and bready malts along with some slight fruityness, mild floral hops as well as well as some spices. Flavour is caramel malts, some slight wood, nectar and mild herbal notes. Quite thini palate.

15th July 2008. Amber beer. Crisp start leading to a sweetish middle (the meadowsweet?) and then a dry elderflower and citrus hop finish. Unusual, refreshing and very drinkable.

(bottle) Clear, pale golden colour with a small foamy white head. Slightly dusty and grainy malty nose with traces of fruity hops. Slightly sweet flavour with a shy level of bitterness, light bodied with a crispy carbonation. Pale malty, slightly grainy and juicy taste with subtle fruity and floral notes; moderately sweet, slightly grainy and fruity finish. Not very exciting. 02.XI.09

Bottle, The Cave, Glasgow. Somewhat underwhelmed by this effort. Poured a yellowy gold colour with a dissipating off white head. Aroma was vague malt and hop with a perfumed accent. Flavour a bit too restrained and insipid. A little bit sweet and floral, but nothing really leapt out and tickled my taste buds. Drinkable but disappointing.

Bottle. It pours a clear, almost golden body under a small, white head. Citrusy nose, borderline catpee, with some alcohol, spices and umami. The flavor starts spicy, then citrus, malts and umami shows up. Medium to full body. Resiny, bitter finish. A quite nice beer, pleasantly hopped, straight forward and easy drinkable. (090514)

50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is spiced, fruity and floral hoppy, promises a bit of sweetness too. Sweet, floral to fruity hoppy and light spiced. Mild malt base. Lasting sweet and bitter hoppy finish.
