Flaske 0,5l fra Eurospar Kræmer i Tromsø. Gyldenbrun med et veldig høyt luftig skum. God, svakt fruktig aroma. Litt gress. Smaken “lett” men innholdsrik. Søt frukt & gress. Overgang til en tørr syrlig bitter ettersmak. OK matøl. KI=6

Big offwhite head. Amber body with lots of carbonation. Light grassy toffeeish aroma with sugary notes. Dry-sweetish grassy papery toffee taste with spicy fruity notes. Mild mouthfeel. Light body. Harshly bitter papery resiny toffee aftertaste with metallic notes. Tastes like a harsh quality lager. Not impressed. (0.5l bottle, Centra, Oslo.)

500 ml bottle. Clear, golden body with a desent off-white head. Aroma is malt and caramel, more dusty than hoppy, a hint of old bread. Flavor is malty, bread and caramel with a moderate bitter finish. Relatively light and plain, but definitively drinkable and a decent thirst-quencher.

500 ml green bottle, as Jennings Cumberland Ale, from MENY Stadionparken, Stavanger. ABV is 4,7%. Deep golden colour, moderate white head. Moderate aroma of "dusty" hops, hints of toffee. Fairly refreshing flavour, dry hops on a background of subtle malts and a hint of fruit. Bitter aftertaste with some unpleasant metallic notes.

50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a small white head, no lacing. Aroma is slight herbal and grassy hoppy, vague citrusy - classic UK hops profile. Slight metallic and dry herbal hops flavoured. Rather dry. Bitter and grassy finish, vague citrusy touch.

A touch of maltiness comes through both in the aroma and in the taste. A plain beer but in no way unpleasant.

Clear golden with good off-white head which disappears quite fast. Strong pleasant aroma which I can’t quite place - it reminds me of some confectionary I think; maybe it is the combination of caramel and fruity and hoppy aromas. Medium body with an initially creamy mouthfeel which became less distinct as the beer came to room temperature or the carbonation reduced. Rich sweet malty start with some balancing tangy notes moving to a reasonably bitter finish. A rather nice beer. [Another tasting three months later left me less impressed, finding the sweet caramelly malt and odd mix with the pils-like metallic vegetably hops.]
