Available only on draft (and now canned as Pale Ale Draught-Style)!
This version has slightly less alcohol, bitterness and slightly more color than the bottled version. The hop varieties and malts used are the same.

On tap at Parkteateret (Scene). Pours clear orange/amber with an off-white head. Fruity aroma with malt, some caramel, hops and hints of citrus and pine. Milder aroma than I remember from the bottled version Medium sweet and fruity with hops and caramel and a lightly dry and pleasantly bitter finish. Nice and sessionable APA. Nice to get some decent beer at concerts too, not just the usual flavourless lager. (2013-02-15)

Cask at the Bishops Arms (Savoy) Malmo. Golden Brown pour with a thin white frothy head. A malty but weak aroma leading to a nice refreshing bitter flavour with some spicy floral notes on the palate. This is one of my favourite session beers when I'm in the US. The ABV is fine for a session and its a real thirst quencher.

Draft: Poured a medium amber color ale with a medium size foamy head. Aroma of citrus and piney hops is well balanced against some lightly sweet caramel malt base. Taste is also a wonderfully mix of floral hops notes from West Coast hops with nice line and citrus notes though they are never overwhelming. Malt base is not too sweet and well balanced against the hops. Body is about average with good carbonation. This si one staple that I will never get tired of.

Pours deep amber into a shaker. White head with medium retention recedes leaving scant spiders. Slightly sour resin aromas. Crisp with sweet caramel and resin upfront turning to sour resin in the lasting finish.

Draft @ Hangar. Pours a lightly cloudy amber with about a finger of head. Aroma of caramel and grapefruit. Taste is about the same. Medium bodied with a somewhat thick texture. Lively carbonation and a long finish. Overall, not bad. I would like to try draft and bottle side-by-side.
