Draught @ Christianssand Brygghus, Kristiansand
Pours hazy golden with a white head. Aroma has notes of malt, grain, floral, grass and hint of apples. Taste is medium sweet and light bitter with a long grainy and floral finish. Body is medium, texture is thin to oily, carbonation is soft.

On tap @ the brewpub. Unclear orange body with a moderate sized, lacing white head. Rather light in aroma, malt, grain, light fruit and some spicy yeast. Flavor is sweetish malt, grain, biscuit, mild fruit and relatively bitter. Medium body and decent sweet and bitter aftertaste. A bit skeptic about a pilsner/pale lager camouflaged at something else, what’s the point? That’s often my question. This one works somehow, it’s something different but still a lager.
