On tap at Shaketown, pours a hazy yellowish blonde with a small white head. Aroma is pretty neutral, with a touch of pillowy wheat — but there's basically nothing on the nose. Flavour has a sort of herbal, vegetal character — I guess that's the kveik? — and a soft wheaty base. I've to date never liked a kveik beer and this doesn't change things.

Hazy gold with a decent white head. Very little aroma. Touch of clove and spice with a creamy finish.

Cloudy, tan, thick head. Watery, touch wheaty. Some underlying fruitiness but honestly this is like small beer. Just disappears quickly and there’s not much there at the best of times.

Good cloudy gold body, some nice creamy foam. Aroma is slight corn and vegetal hops, a little too weak. Taste is weak grain, soft hops, vague banana. Good carbonation at least. Everything is too soft, good texture, but the flavours should be more bold.

Poured from the tap. Hazy gold with small white head. Kveik, light wit, touch of citrus. The Kveik works decently here.
