An orange colour, a head is medium and blond. Aroma has caramel and pine, simple but great. Taste is great and traditional, caramelly body, strong pine, even some resin, also nicely strong bitterness. Medium bodied. Traditional pine there, I like this. Positive surprise.

Bottled (from Alko Prisma). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is floral, quite dull and earthy with mild grass. Flavour is dusty, grainy, rubbery and some chewy floral tones. Feels really old. And would get beaten by many British IPA's. 5C west coast ipa in this one seems to be a waste of good hops....
