Keg at Tap East, London. Pours clear, bright gold with a tight, white cream head. Oddly floral, perfumey nose. Light to medium sweet with more perfume, light pine, light pale malts. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Light sweet finish with mild pine, light berries, herbs and more perfume. Meh, decent.

Bottle: Poured a golden/orangey color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of hops with nice bitter edge mix in with some dry caramel malt. Taste is also dominated by bitter hops with light floral touch and some dry caramel malt that are quite solid for the style. Body is quite full with good carbonation. Good refreshing drink with enough hops punch to do the job.

50cl bottle shared at a norwegian evening. Zesty aroma. Ok white head. Hazy blond pour. Citrus bitterness. Lovely pale ale.

Cloudy amber beer. Softish dry palate. Very frothy white head. A light malt base, slightly sweet with some caramel. Mildly bitter hops. Finishes frothy and dry. A bit fluffy for a pale ale, competent brew though.

Bottle. Pours slightly hazy orange with a small white head.Delicious pale ale. Fruity and hoppy with nice bitterness. Slightly sweet with a dry and bitter finish. One of the best Norwegian beers below 4,75% ABV in my opinion.

Bottle. Pours somewhat hazy reddish golden, with a massive, airy head. Aroma is flowery hops, nectar and resin, with notes of honey, toffee and chocolate malts. Flavour is roasted caramel malts, biscuits, nuts and chocolate, with a sharp citrusy hopiness. Finishes of with a long lasting orange peel bitterness.
