28/11/2022. Bottle from Marek. Pours cloudy dark golden orange with a small frothy off-white head. Aroma is sweet, bready, malt, citrus, overripe banana, caramel, bubblegum, slight touch of herb. Medium plus sweetness and low bitterness. Moderate body, average carbonation. Not bad.

On tap at Copenhagen Beer Festival. Pale yellow / whitish colour. This is supposed to be some kind of witbier, including the traditional ingredients coriander and orange peel - but it is just too modest on everything. Very light bodied, and refreshing enough, without any unpleasant off-flavours. Allegedly "brewed to honour Icelandic women" - I think Icelandic women would have deserved something with more flavour than this.

Draft at Micro Bar in Reykjavik, Iceland. The pour is hazed golden orange with a minimal white head. The aroma is spice, wheat grain and Belgian yeast. The taste is a balanced wit, with nice spice and yeast notes and the wheat grain clean and balanced. The palate is light to medium bodied, soft carbonation and clean finish. Solid.

(Bottle, 0.33 l - BB 01.11.2014, thanks SaintMatty, 20141102) The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma was citric, acidic and fruity. Palate was medium bodied with quite high carbonation. Flavours were citricness, lemon, fruitiness, sweetness, mildly malts and quite low bitternes. Aftertaste was sweet and bitter. Resembles Finnihs low alcohol mead. Not a good beer.
