440 ml can, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 5.5%. Murky pink colour, moderate white head. Distinct aroma of crushed cranberries and lactic acid, just a faint hint of cinnamon. Very sour flavour, loads of lactic acid and cranberries, again only a faint hint of cinnamon. Not my preferred beer for Christmas.

Mørk stråfarget. Uklar. Høyt kremaktig skum som daler sakte. Litt lacing. Syrlig bæraroma. Smaken tørr. Som aromaen. Litt kjedelig. Gjørmete siste kvelling.

Pre-Christmas speed ticking with Gunnfryd @ Håndverkeren. Unclear orange body white head. Aroma has ripe fruit, citric fruit and some acidity. Taste is sweet and sour with citric fruit and red berries. Medium body same aftertaste.

Can, at Håndverkeren. It pours an unclear pink grapefruit juice lookingbody under a dense white head. The aroma is rather sourish, generic red berries and lingonberry. Vanilla hints. It's medium bodied and nicely carbonated, acidic, with a berry driven flavor. Red berries and lingonberry in a more pleasant and delicate way than in the aroma. Vanilla and lactose notes in the back, as well as a very gentle bready maltiness. Lasting acidic berry finish. Not bad, not my kind of beer though, especially not for Christmas. 231103

30/10/2023. Can shared by Jeremy, cheers! Pours cloudy murky dark peachy orange with a small frothy white head. Aroma is cakey, pastry, biscuit, cinnamon, cranberry. Medium sweetness and medium to heavy sourness. Moderate body, average carbonation. Enjoyable.

Rosa tåkete med hvitt skum. Lukter hvete og noe røde bær. Lett, noe sur. Smaker sure bær og noe lime.

18th October 2023, tasting with minutemat at my plaice. 440ml can: BB 25th December 2023. Hazy pink body, white wispy head. Cranberries rule the nose and taste, the cinnamon adding a much needed semi-sweet trace. Interesting beer though.

440ml can shared with blackhaddock. Hazed pink appearance, white head which recedes. Smooth creamy cranberry flavour profile with cinnamon nudging in on the finish. Nicely presented, quite flavoursome.
