330ml can kindly shared by Magne. Loose, white-pink coloured head. Clear golden body white a shade of pink. Lacing rings down the glass. Pale malts and sweet berries aroma. Sweet taste of strawberry and cherry added by a touch of cardboard. Rather thin bodied. Gives an artificial impression Possible to drink (Sommarøy 01.08.2015).

Small white head. Clear pale yellow body with carbonation. Fruity mealy wild berry aroma, slightly artificial. Dryish mealy wild berry taste with paper notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, mealy mouthfeel. Dryish artificial wild berry aftertaste with mealy barnyard notes. It’s drinkable, but that’s all. Lovely can, though. (0.33l can, Skaftfell Bistro, Seydisfjördur.)

33 cl can @ wPBF Ⅲ, BBE 11.07.2015
Aroma has mellow and sweet fruity tones – feels like fruit candy! Flavour has cardboard notes, some mellow fruits and hints of minerals. Quite a disappointment after the aroma.
