0,33 flaske (takk til Børge for denne!), delt med medbrygger Ovesen ved tapping av vår juleøl (imp.stout): klar lys gylden med kort skum. Mild aroma og slank kropp gjør den lett å helle over drøvelen, men også lett å glemme. Litt citrus, urter og noen florale toner. Mild bitterhet i avslutningen.

24 September 2019. At Mourelo, Rethymno (Crete). Shared with the lovely Anke! Pours clear pale golden with a lasting, thin, foamy, off-white head. Aroma of yeast, bread, grain, jute bag, kitchen herbs, biscuit. Taste is light malty sweet & light hoppy bitter, bready with a soft apple touch, bit sourish, herbs & spices into the dryish, grassy hoppy finish, lingering bread & soft fruit. Light to medium body, slick texture, lively carbonation. Crisp, a bit spicy; tastes different than other Pale Lagers; recommended for its style.
