Our brewers selected flavour packed, slow kilned ale malt, caramalt and biscuity malted wheat to craft a malt backbone which is then beautifully complemented by a heady hop aroma of zesty lemon and orange citrus. This golden ale finishes refreshing and moreish.

Bottle. A slightly chill-hazed almost golden beer with a moderate sized, white head. Citrusy on the nose, with grapefruit and some pineapple. A touch of pale malt in the background. Medium body, quite effervescent, with a bit too much sweetness. Fine hoppy fruityness and bitterness. Grapefruit and resin. Medium lenght fruity finish with grapefruit and resin. Easy to drink and quite quenching, but not a very interesting beer. (090220)

Biggish shiny offwhite head. Light yellow faintly hazy body. Fruity floral hoppy elderberry aroma with dusty pea notes. Dry-sweetish dusty floral wooden fruity taste with citric elderberry notes. Harmonic. Soft and mild mouthfeel. Lightish body. Dry resiny hay and flowers aftertaste. Extremely drinkable. A lovely beer. (0.5l bottle, Lørenskog brusshop, Oslo.)

500ml bottle from Luvians Bottleshop in St Andrews. The noisy pour reveals a golden body under a fading, slightly off-white head reduced to a patch on the surface. Smell of lemony fruits. Spicy and fruity hops in flavour alongside a touch of nutty malt. The best part was the soft and rounded spicy bitterness on the swallow. Dry and easy going. The bottle version is now available in Norway [31.10.2008].

500 ml bottle, bought at Lørenskog Brus-Shop. ABV is 4.1%. Golden colour, decent white head. Lovely aroma of fruity and floral hops, notes of honey. The flavour has distinct hops throughout, with grapefruity and nutty notes. Refreshing and moreish. Plenty of hoppy bitterness in the long aftertaste.

Bottle from John’s Marketplace in Portland, OR. Hazy golden color with a nice white head. Aromas of pale malt and fruity esters. Medium body with creamy carbonation. Flavor is bitter hop over grain and malt. It’s all about the bitter - which is not over the top, but quite bitter. I’d guess about 60 IBU or better. We’re not talking malty ESB here. It’s a very good ale.
