Aroma: Bready, hoppy notes.

Appearance: Light golden in colour, thin head which quickly dissipates.

Taste: Not very exciting, but crisp and fresh. Very drinkable.

Palate: Thin body, soft carbonation.

Overall: A refreshing, hoppy blonde ale. Not the most memorable, but I would purchase again.

0.5l bottle from Centra Coloseum, shared with ClubGonzo and RuneStumo in a random Oslo park. Pours a slightly hazy golden body. Big fluffy lasting cream-white head. Quite nice aroma, light hoppy, some grassy tones. Soft carbonation and a mild nice oily mouthfeel. Really refreshing flavors, light floral, citrus, good nutty tones and nice chocolate paper in the finish. Quite nice!

Bottle from Tesco
Appearance - Golden orange, clear, frothy 2 finger white head, some lacing.
Aroma - Citrus hops, slight resin, sweet malts.
Taste - Grapefruity citrus hop, light sweet malts, some floral notes, tiny hint of spice. Good, simple, refreshing flavour for the abv.
Palate - Very slightly sticky oily, average carb. Finish leaves a citrus tang with a little sour bitterness.
Overall - Does what it says on the tin - A refreshing, hoppy ale. It’s rather simple but it’s an ideal ’lawnmower beer’. Well made for a bottled ale at 3.9%

Bottle from Sainsbury’s. It pours golden yellow, with a thick white head. The nose is white bread, dough, floral and sweet orange. The taste is straw, hay, white bread, dough, lemon pith and light ginger, with a dry finish. Light body and moderate, but harsh carbonation. Ok.

Cask gravity at Wye Hop festival 2011. Gold no condition. Bit of hop. But grassy. Not great to be honest. A little dull and I drank it as quickly as possible.

Bottle. It’s an almost clear one, golden in color and with a small, white head. Citrusy hops and crackery malts on the nose, nice but too weak. Some bitterness in the flavor, which is mostly citrus peel-like. Medium body. Bitter, citrusy finish. A beer that drinks easily but I think it’s a bit boring to do as a session beer. 110330
