Bottled (Vinmonopolet Kirkenes). Hazy orange colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is tart berries, some mild fruits as well as some lactic notes. Flavour is dry tart fruitiness, some wood as well as mild lactic tones to it. More a sour than a Saison by now (bottle bought in Dec 17, BBE May 2017)

Backlog October 2016. Slightly unclear golden body under a big, fluffy white head. Heavy carbonation. Aroma has acidic berries, malt and slightly funky. Taste has sour yoghurt, raspberries, candy and slightly harsh bitterness. Medium body and same aftertaste. Weird and unbalanced, hardly drinkable.

Bottled 500ml (Vinmonopolet, BB 05/2017)
Vinmonopolet sold us 1,5 years old bottle ... Hazy orange colour, medium-sized white head. Tart strawberry aroma. Medium-bodied. Tart flavour. Strawberries and gooseberries. I don't know how this was fresh. Vintage is not so enjoyable.

500 ml bottle, batch # 165, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 6.0%. Best before date was 02. May 2017, but the netstore called and informed me about that, and asked me if I still wanted it. I took the chance. Murky straw colour, huge white head. Aroma of citrus / lemons and lactic acid, hints of mild spices. The flavour is lemony with plenty of lactic acid, not extreme, but enough to mask the saison qualities that this beer otherwise might have. Fairly refreshing, but hardly a beer I’ll buy again.

10.11.2016, 0,5l bottle @ local tasting:
Opens with a big fizz. Big fizzy-creamy longlasting head. Aroma is slightly fresh floral, weeds, leafs, yeast, minerals, sap, flowers, bubblegum, soda powder, yogurt. Taste is slightly sour-ish dry, sorrel, sap, flowers, minerals, sour grass, yeast, yogurt, soda powder, fresh wood, leafs, citrus peel. Medium bitterness, slightly dry sour-ish mouthfeel. Kind of strange, but nice enough.

Flaske fra helsekosten på Kvaddå, hjemme alene på lørdagskvelden: uklar gylden med tett hvitt skum som standhaftig holder følge hele veien. Pikant og frisk bærsyrlig aroma, og smaken er enda bedre. Jeg finner rips og bringebær, rabarbra, melkesyre/yogurt, lys malt og gjær i en lekker kombo. Lett og behagelig bitterhet med et syrlig snerp i avslutningen - en balansert, god og interessant sommerforfriskning. Denne kan jeg lett ha mer av.
