Bottle. Not to bad non alcoholic IPA. Of course rather thin bodied and lacking some complexity, but has a fine, refreshing fruitiness in both aroma and flavor. Not much malt and acceptable bitterness. Another non alcoholic IPA alternative that might do the job when fresh.

Bottle. Clear, deep golden body with a decent, lacing off-white head. Rather malt driven for an IPA both in aroma and flavor. Biscuit, some caramel and general fruitiness. Moderate bitterness. Medium body and aftertaste. Totally drinkable, slightly old fashion IPA, but not very interesting.

On tap somewhere at Marstrand, Sweden. Hazy yellow body with a medium sized white head that fades. Refreshing aroma of citric fruit, oranges, tangerine and wheat. Flavor is also very refreshing, citric fruit, sweet pale malt, wheat, oranges, tangerine and hint of banana with decent bitterness. Balanced body and aftertaste in the same direction. A very nice and refreshing white IPA/hoppy wheat that brings a nice combination from both styles. Must be enjoyed cold, becomes pretty one dimensional as temperature rices.

Can. Clear golden with an off-white head. Mild aroma, mostly light pale malt. Soft, almost lager’ish in taste, some malt, not much hop flavor. Drinkable, but very plain and rather boring.

0.33 l can. Pours clear golden with huge, quickly disappearing head. Nose is almost non-existent, only some sweetness appears. Taste is rather sweet, with hardly distinguisable notes, but there are some grains that stand out from the mess. Closes with short sweet finish, has light body and average carbo. Mediocre lager from the sweet side. 12 egy tucat, de legalabb nem ihatatlan.

0.33 l can. Pours clear golden with white, immediately disappearing head. Nose is average lager-like with occasionaly appearing mosaic. Rather dull taste with only slight bitterness poviding something noteable. Short, faint and watery finish, light body, average carbonation. Rather mediocre but drinkable altogether.
