Rich, indulgent flavour at a sessionable ABV? Piece of cake. The perfect pastry sour sliced and served for our 6th birthday, with jammy strawberries, tart raspberries and sweet vanilla icing.

440 ml can, at Cardinal, Stavanger. ABV is 4.8%. Opaque "dirty" / greyish red colour, small off-white to pink head. "Artificial" and strong aroma of strawberries, raspberries, lactose, lactic acid - and yes, cake. Very sweet and medium sour flavour, with the same elements. Sweet Jayzus! - I will probably not be drinking this again. Be my guest!

From can, no head, murky lightish red colour, red berries, fruity popsicle, nectarine, cake maltiness, medium sourness with a light balancing sourness. Highly enjoyable.

440ml can. Aroma of raspberry, strawberry yoghurt. Taste is again more like yoghurt than cake, like those strawberry/raspberry/vanilla ones you had as a kid, Petit Filous I think they were called? It's literally that but as a beer. And a bit cakey too. Actually really nice but very, very sweet. Lactose completely unnecessary in a beer like this.

Oransjerød uklar med beige skum. Lukter jordbær og noe bringebær bruspulver og vanilje. Fruktig, noe sursyrlig. Samme i smak, med noe iblandet grønne epler. middels lang.

Sampled from the tap at Woodworkers. Pours a cloudy pink with a slight grapefruit hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has sweet strawberry and vanilla with a bit of tart raspberry cutting through. Flavor has vanilla and slightly dank strawberry with a bit of tart raspberry in the finish.
