750ml bottle, as Mikkeller Nelson Sauvin Brut, from Vinmonopolet Langnes. Patchy layer, spotty lacing, hazy apricot body. Inviting and rich aroma of mandarin. Sappy citrus flavours joined by yeasty fruitiness. Dry, lingering aftertaste. Smooth in the mouth. Fine bodied. Drinking pleasure.

Refrigerated 75 cl brown bottle corked and and capped poured into a Trappist glass. Hazy light orange with medium white head. Aroma is white grapes, medium body, well carbonated, and good small-bubble lacing. Taste is grapes, herbal hops, a little oak, and slightly dry finish. Different stuff.
