6th August 2008. On tap at GBBF. Frothy golden beer - pronounced honey start follows through to a honeyish mid and (wait for it) a honeyish finish. Just a little hoppiness at the end.

500ml bottle. Shared with Magne. Deep, dark golden. One-finger white hue. Spiced fruity smell. Very sweet fruity taste partly counterbalanced by a solid bitter end. Soft carbonated. Refreshing, and alright (Liverpool, 04.05.2009).

Bottle, thx to Tarjei. A clear, actually slightly hazy, beer with an off-white head. Quite fruity on the nose, with some malty qualities. Just like expected from a golden ale. Fruity flavor too, on a malty background, with some grainy notes and a lemony bitterness. Medium body. Fruity finish with some pine, and bitterness. A quite nice beer that need some time to show itself. Far from outstanding though. (080731)
