Bottle from Gulating, Stavanger. Almost clear golden body with a moderate sized white head. Aroma has mild pale malt with just a hint of cucumber. Flavor is pale malt with a balanced and almost fruity cucumber flavor. There is also a distinct flavor of watermelon to be found, surprisingly. Medium body and cucumber with watermelon in aftertaste. Quite refreshing and balanced version of a cucumber beer where the cucumber flavor feels well integrated and naturally.

Thanks to djoeye for sharing a bottle. Clear golden body, naked at the top, sparse lacing. Prominent taste of cucumber with hints of pale malts. Cucumber up front to the taste buds with hints of dusty hops and pale malts. Mid-sweet ending. Soft in the mouth. Strange taste, but accepted. (Tromsø 18.07.2017).
