0.5l bottle. Hazy golden body, thick off-white head. Mostly citrusy (grapefruit) aroma, but it also has some caramel and honey to it. Grapefruit, orange zest, caramel and honey in the flavor. Nice hop bitterness in the finish. Decent pale ale.

On tap at Naboen, Bergen. Pours a hazy orange colour with a light beige and creamy medium head. Has a nice fruity aroma with peach, tropical fruits, bubble gum, straw and is pretty malty in the background. The flavour is sweet and fruity at first with apricot and sweet spices. In the aftertaste there�s hay and hops. Nice and pleasant. Has a rich and soft mouth feel, and a lasting medium bitterness. A fruity, rich and balanced pale ale.

500ml bottle. Pours a hazy coppery orange amber colour, very bubbly & foamed up initially, collapsing to a thin tan head leaving alittle lacing, not much aroma, hint of soy sauce. Tasting gives a hit of spicy bitterness, malt, grassy, then subtle resin and grapefruit notes. Smooth oily mouth feel, through to a lingering dry bitterness. OK.

Draft at Taps Beer Bar Kuala Lumpur. Great to taste Grimstad's finest so far away from Grimstad. Medium cloudy amber pour,very frothy and that froth positively clings to the side of the glass. Not a heavy aroma which is surprising given the citrus notes and floral taste of the beer. It's packed full of flavour without doubt. There is lots of life in this beer which hits the roof of your mouth immediately. A really special beer and great for any time of the day, not just for breakfast :-) ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

16/VI/2012 - 50cl bottle from Geers or De Hopduvel (both have the beer, forgot where I bought it) @ home - brewed: 21/XI/11, BB: 21/XI/14 (2012-627)

Little cloudy yellow to light orange beer, viscose pour, huge creamy dense white head, very stable, little adhesive. Aroma: ripe summer fruit, peaches, some melons, mainly citrus, some dish washing product. MF: lots of carbon, medium body. Taste: fruity start, lots of citrus, grassy bitterness, little sweet, sugary. Aftertaste: very bitter, medicinal touch with some passion fruit, citrus and grapefruit coming through. Not exactly spectacular.

Draught @ Gastropub Nordic. Rated on 02.03.2011
Aroma is sweetish and rather strong on hops with exotic fruits and some caramel. Flavour is hoppy too with exotic fruits, some biscuits and caramel. Really nice and refreshing, one of the best APAs I’ve had. A bottle was slightly better than this draught version.
