Flaska från ICA. Klar bärnstensfärgad vätska med lågt krämigt skum. Lik originalet men tunnare. Den mindre sötma gör den lite torrare och mer drickvänlig men det är på bekostnad av fyllighet och smakdjup. Ok

500ml can, shared by djoeye. Crystal clear amber coloured body. Steady off-white head. Rings of lacing down the glass. Caramel and leafy hops on the nose, nice blend. Taste of caramel malts leading to a resinous hoppy ending. Rather thin bodied, but not diluted. Fine carbonated. Well made considering the low abv, and the other beers we tasted this evening (Tromsø 14.05.2014).

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance had a clear amber/red colored body with a one finger head that sustains for a good minute before slowly dieing to leave a clingy lacing. Some carbonation is seen rising.
The smell had English pale malts - malty sweet and could be construed as \"soapy\" to some drinkers.
The taste had a malty sweet all the way through with a strong English malty aftertaste and a quick dry finish.
On the palate, it sat about a light to medium and was somewhat sessionable. Carbonation is mainly subdued and is good for the style and to me
Overall, though maybe nothing special to scream about, but hey for what its worth, I could see myself having it again with some fish n’ chips.

Smak och doft av humle, malt, karamell med toner av citrus. Rund och len och goda smörkolasmaker. En bra öl för att vara en 3,5%:are.
