330ml bottle, many thanks to NilsAS. Shared with Finn. A covering, bubbly white head over a near-clear golden body, scattered lacing. Hop fruity aromas, hints of grassy hops added by a citric touch. Moments of grass and orange fruit to the taste character. Distant notes of bitterness towards the finish. Just okay. (Tromsø, 13.12.2025)

Hazy, pale, thin head. There's some phenols on the nose. On the palate, sweet malt is really nice, there's a decent orangey hop note but then there's phenols in the finish as well.

Bottle @ Westgate Food Court. Clear dark yellow with foamy off-white head, resinous aroma, medium carbonation, medium bitter resinous taste, thin body, long finish. Not too bad.
