Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: dark orange color with a two finger off white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: dark berries, honey, yeasty sweetness, light mixed citrusy tones, some wheat but seems kinda flabby and not doing much
Flavor: pretty much seems to blend the prior noted aromas but adds in a little bit of salt; finishes dark berry-ish, citrusy and semi-salty
Texture: medium bodied, somewhat sessionable; light smoothness but also some tart notes nicking the tongue just a little bit
Overall: nice fruited tart ale with some salt in it, I could come back to this beer for that.

Bottle at home. Pours deep, opaque orange with a thick head... and chunks of yeast :( nose is light honey sweetness, citrus zest, lactic notes. Taste is somewhat tart, and barely noticeably sweet, showing notes of citruses, lemon zest, berries and light lactic acid. Tart finish with a hint of honey, light, semi-dry body, soft to average carbo. Tasty, but not quite outstanding altogether.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is fruity and herbal with tart klingonberries, wheat, citrus, orange, more berries, some nectarine and soft heather. Flavour is moderate to medium sour with some sweetness. Body is a little above medium. Actually very nice, lovely aroma and sweet/sour flavour with a decent body. Tasty.

(Bottle) Hazy amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity nose with cloudberries, lingonberries, heather honey and white bread. Fruity, tart taste with notes of ripe cloudberries, heather honey, white bread and lingonberries. A light salt touch comes through after a while. Hardly any bitterness. Medium body, dry. Tasty and refreshing, with a fresh berry character. Very nice.

Hazy sort of dark pale -i guess a pale beer with lingonberries. Salty, light berry, big body, alcohol and a hint of malt. This is an odd duck. Crazy candy sort of taste. I am not 100% sure what to make of this.

Bottled. Murky deep ambery colour with a mediumsized off-whtie head. Aroma is honey, lactic, some fruity, mild alcohol tones. Flavour is honey, some cherries, mild salty, some alcohol and mild toffeeish tones. Somewhat salty and dry palate. Enjoyable, as the salts and sweetness goes together well.
