On tap at Schouskjelleren, Oslo. Slightly hazy deep golden to amber with a fairly decent off-white head. Aroma is dominated by citrus with notes of tropical fruits, yeast and hints of malt, pine and herbs. Moderate sweet with grapefruity flavour and an acidic and bitter finish. Bitter aftertaste with notes of grapefruit. Refreshing APA.

My second from this brewery and I am still very happy. This one also looks just outstanding in my world. Unclear orange golden color with a fine white head. The head do not last very long but it remains as a white layer as long as there is beer in the glass. Lovely fruity aroma with some citrus coming up and making an ok balance. Fine body with a fresh bitterness. As it got warmer the bitterness almost killed the flavor. Really heavy bitterness after a while. Flavor do also contain a lot of tropical fruit and some mild acidic citrus to balance it. To me is a really damned lovely ale. I like it this way.
