500 ml bottle. Pale golden body with a nice white head. Refreshing aroma of pale malt, and slightly acidic fruit with some flowers. Light flavor of mild malt and hint of fruit, not much bitterness. Rather plain and boring.

Bottle. A lightly hazy one, yellow to golden in color and with a white two-finger head that lasts. There’s a biscuity maltyness in the aroma, with citrusy and piney hops. The flavor has a nice bitterness to deal with the pale malts, and the hops also leaves flavors of citrus and pine cones. Medium body, decent carbonation and a mostly bitter finish. A quenching and quite tasteful one, especially considering the ABV it’s nice. 140110

Cask på Bishop Gustav Malmö. Ljust gul, med en aning grönt i färgen, ungefär som citronsaft. Inget skum. Lätt frisk fruktig och lätt gräsig doft. Mycket lätt kropp, fina rena smaker av passionsfrukt, lime, gräs. Lätt sötma, fruktig och en lite gräsig besk med inslag av tallskott. Väldigt lättdrucken men men fina smaker. Inte så årstidstypisk kanske.
