500ml bottle kindly shared by Finn. Nice bottle design with a celebration neck. Pours a super bright, straw coloured body. Small white head. Pale malty nose added by hints of grassy hops. Taste of hay, grass and fruits, as well as some hints of sour malts towards the ending. Soft in the mouth. Maybe a little above par for the style (Tromsø, 06.09.2012).

Flaske 0,5l fra Kilpishalli. Delt med Rune i H9 6.9.12. Lys gylden. Krystallklar. Lavt kremaktig skum. Sterk & god maltaroma. Søt smak. Litt syrlig fruktsmak men gjennomgående søt. Svakt bitter ettersmak. Pent flaskedesign. KI=4

Bottle. A clear, pale golden beer topped by a small, off-white head. Lightly grainy and corn-like aroma with fruityness dominating. Grainy and corn-like flavor too. Some bitterness and a fruityness saving the day. Medium body, semi-sweet and with a pleasant carbonation. The finish is sweet and grainy with some fruityness. Super-boring and uninteresting. 120623

Bottle @ fonefan tasting. Medium head with medium duration. Color is pale golden. Aroma and taste are malt and hops. Quite boring.

Bottled (from Prisma, Vaasa). Pale yellowish golden colour, small white head. Aroma is grains, malts, bread and mild grass. Quite mild though. Flavour is very much the same in a mild way. I do prefer the normal Sandels to this, a this just feels very bland (though quite clean for a macro pale lager).

50cl bottle. Poured pale golden with a frothy, white head, lacing. Aroma is weak with some mild grassyness and sweet malt. Flavor quite similar. Smooth. Uninteresting to say the least, but not any off flavors. Not much else either.
