33cl bottle (part of a set of four bottles) bought onboard Aurora Botnia from Umeå til Vaasa. Pours hazy orange with a modest, white head. Mild fruity and hoppy aroma with fairly fresh citrusy notes and hints of malt. Moderate sweet with low to medium flavour intensity and ditto bitterness. On the lighter side, and feels a bit thin and watery, but it's also quite refreshing. Fair enough.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a cloudy, opaque golden with a small, lacing off-white head. Dusty, faint citrusy nose. Menium body, yeasty, chalky and minerally with a finish that is more dry than really bitter. 190525

Bottle at home, Nivala. Enjoyed straight from the bottle. Aromas and flavors: Some fruits, some harshness, some hops.... nothing special.

Bottle, huge thanks FartDungeonMaster. Murky reddish apricot body, thick, lasting white head. Grapefruit and some other fruit, unripe green mango maybe. Lean, dry taste, grapefruit, citric, bit empty, dry, prickly. Okay enough.

Bottled 330ml (tnx oh6gdx)
Hazy orange colour, small white head. Orange, hops, yeast fumes. Medium-bodied. Malty, fruits, pine, citrus and yeastyness. LIngering bitterness in the aftertaste. Quite hoppy for Summer Ale and has some unwanted yeast kind of flavours.
