0.33 l bottle from 'Rudat', best before February 2026. Hazy, golden with a medium large, foamy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, gently fruity-floral aroma of pineapple, passion fruit and lemon peel. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, a bit dry, quite fruity-floral taste of pineapple, passion fruit and lemon peel, followed by a short, moderately bitter, slightly dry finish. Almost medium-bodied, fairly effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Refreshing brew, nicely hoppy and dry, love that Kveik character in here, way too effervescent though.

330ml bottle. Murky, orange, dark golden colour with average to huge, creamy, slowly osteoporosing, moderately lacing, white head. Cautious, minimally fruity, hoppy aroma, grainy malty background, hints of orchard fruit and muesli. Taste is mildly bitter hoppy and slightly strawy and grainy, pale malty, almost no fruitiness whatsoever, maybe some yellow stone fruit; tastes like and Old School Helles in a subsided, smoky train station restaurant in the late 70s.
Slightly creamy, watery texture, smooth and soft, simultaneously minimally dry palate, medium, mildl yprickly carbonation.
Very "homebrew-ish" indeed, surely not infected, but somehow not serious and evoking the question: "What's that supposed to be?"
