4.7% ABV. Il gusto al naso finisce dritto sul luppolo. L’intensità olfattiva è elevata e la persistenza olfattiva è apprezzabile. Il cappello è di schiuma compatta, dalla buona tenuta e persistente, con bollicine medie. La consistenza del liquido è limpida. Le bollicine sono fini, a carbonazione media, persistente ed insistita. Il colore è ambrato carico. Il corpo è strutturato. L’amaro è deciso. L’intensità gustativa è elevata e la persistenza gustativa è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono luppolate. Il finale è setoso, lungo, secco e pulito. Il retrogusto è intenso. Il palato riporta sentori di miele, crosta di pane, frutta secca, resina, fiori e agrumi.

Clear amber, white head. Light malty aroma with notes og hops. Bitter with light fruity notes, rough and dry, alchohol seems unbalanced. Slightly watery yet bitter finish.

Nice rich golden color, with a fine white head. Good lacing. Fresh fruity and herbal/mild citric hoppy aroma. Well balanced hoppy, fruity and malty taste. Lovely thirst quencher. Good session ale.

Boks fra Kvickly på Nørrebro: farge og skum som seg hør og bør for en esb. Lett blomsterpreget aroma og smak som gjør den lett over drøvelen. Fin pøseøl, mye bedre enn sip (standard industripøs).

0,5L can. Pours nice clear amber with big white head. The head stays..Aroma is metallic and caramel. Taste follows the nose and adds some bitterness. Finish is decent bitter, but also very metallic. Overall: not really good, not good at all.
