Undated can, a bit old, from tfontana, drunk 11/26/24. Thanks, Tom! Heavily hazy, peachy-brass-maize. Giant, well-retained, white head. Lots of cracker, light pine (no resin), grapefruit skin and soft lemon. Clean with a bit of growing peach-papaya-mango on the end. Very yeasty, very juicy, very malty but with quite good attenuation. Some stronger bitterness than expected for the style, but it's appreciated. Pineapple, peach, papaya. A bit too much overripe fruit for my taste, with a hint of alcohol and a somewhat abrupt, bland, crackery finish. But it's clean and the yeast is charming, giving off all sorts of earth and mineral. I like the dryness and yet the chewy, biscuity malt backbone. I'll give it a bit of credit for being old.

Can pour from One Stop Market. Cloudy, orange-yellow with tons of sparkle, decent head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma is strong tangerine, bread. Taste is strong tangerine, lemon, melon/berry and bready backbone. Smooth, creamy texture, average carbonation and dry, crisp finish. Nothing flashy but well made and highly drinkable.

16 oz can in a trade with tfontana. Aroma and flavor are a mirror, slight lemon, mild earthy hops. Nelson is kind of lost in the other hops flavor. Slight bready malt backbone. Mild earthy bitterness. Pretty good.

En 0,473 boks generøst utskjenket av Våland Brygghus: uklar strågul med ok skum. Grapefrukt, søte appelsiner og en noe overmoden ananas. Saftig avslutning med mild bitterhet.
