A very straightforward, steel tank, slick and smooth version of one of Scandinavia's most interesting rustic farmhouse styles. As expected, although sweeter and with zero funk. Glad that more brewers are trying such styles. Good beer for packing beer!

Sampled from the tap at GTMW 2022. Pours a clear peachy copper with a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has tart pineapple and light lime with some lactose and strawberry underlying. Flavor has much more lime with pineapple and sweet grains backing.

Aroma has sweet barley and rum with a bit of bourbon, toffee and caramel backing. Flavor has toffee and sweet grains up front with a bit of a mixing of barrel flavors backing.

Pour is more of a cloudy amber with a large white head. Aroma is grapefruit and piney hops. Flavor is more pine and resin, grapefruit hops. This may call this a hazy IPA but this is an old scholl west coast IPA all the way. It's a decent beer but mislabeled.

Can shared by JK, thanks! Pours a clear amber with a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces to the edges. Aroma has lots of bread and grain with a hint of grass underlying. Flavor has lots of bread and grain with a bit of earthy grass supporting.

Not bad, but kind of malty and a touch sweet for a pilsner.

Pint can thanks to Drake. Hazy orange with a small off-white head. Grapefruit, mango, caramel nose. Flavor is random citrus peel - though not a lot of it and... well, little else. A clunker.
