Trolltunga is a jutting rock in Norway, hanging 700 metres over lake Ringedalsvatnet. Only the wary tread the path to the very edge. This beer was brewed to celebrate friendship and a love of wild places.

Gulbrun klar med lavt med hvitt skum. Lukter humleblomst, stikkelsbær og noe søtlig mot tyggegummi og tuttifrutti. Sursyrlig smak, rips, passionsfrukt og stikkelsbær. Sitter godt i ganen.

Semi clear yellow, quickly dissipating white head. Aroma is sweet malt, passion fruit, lactose tone, slight acidic berry tone. Taste is sour with a fair amount of red berries, gooseberries, gentle wheaty malty ground, finishes dry and somewhat bitter. Medium body, medium carbo. Refreshing.

330ml Bottle - Hazy golden with a small head. Grapefruit, lemon and gooseberries in the aroma. Tart, fruity and hoppy taste with lemon, grapefruit, gooseberries and some faint soapy notes. The finish is rather tart. Perfectly drinkable but am not sure if the balance works well overall, at least for more than a few sips. The idea was potentially good, but the execution not so much in my view.

Tried in a bottle at the Buuxton Brewery Tap, pale yellow gold colour with a white head. Aroma defo has the sharp berry fruit, taste tart to sour but still so refreshing.

On tap at TCBW 2016. Hazy pale yellow with a decent white head. Wow! Nice sour fruit and berries, some yeasty and slightly funky notes, citrus and hints of malt. Sour, fruity and quite delicious. Surprisingly refreshing and easy to drink.

Draught @ TCBW 2016. Pours cloudy yellowish with a smooth head. Aroma of sourish gooseberries, fruits, grass, hints of berries. Taste is smooth, slightly tart and fruity with some gooseberries, mild sourness and lactic notes, hints of hops. Finish is crisp, sourish and slightly tart with some fruits and funky notes. Interesting.
