500 ml clear bottle, bought at Systembolaget. ABV is 4.5%. Deep golden to amber colour, big head, slightly off-white. Moderate aroma of floral hops, hints of grass. The flavour has pleasant Goldings hops throughout, on a relatively dry and biscuity background, with just a slight fruitiness. There are definitely worse summer ales than this one around. Highly drinkable.

Bottle from ASDA. Caramel and spicy hop aroma. Flavour was sweet, with a hint of toffee, red fruits and slightly metallic finish. Ok.

(Bottle, 8 Nov 2008) Amber colour with firm, frothy, beige head leaving lots of lacing. Fruity, floral nose with orange, peaches, toffee and honey. Fruity, rather hoppy taste with orange peel, apricots, toffee and ryvita. Dry and nice finish with balanced notes of citrussy hops. Medium body, very refreshing. In short: orange, apricots and toffee refreshment.
