330ml can, kindly shared by Finn. Pours a rich, bubbly white head that laced well, misty golden body. Inviting fruity smell, with grapefruits up front. Hop fruity taste, moments of grapefruits and lemony hops, soft malts beneath. Rounded hop fruity ending with a welcome bitter note. Pleasing. (Sunday session at Vervet, Tromsø 07.09.2025).

An orange beer, a head is small and white. Aroma is quite nice, citrus, fructose, mandarin, some honeydew. Taste has citrus, fructose, some bitterness. Medium bodied. Some unbalanced notes all the time in the background, but it's not bothering a much. Pretty nice.
