Bottle courtesy of RuneBlix, which has been sat below ground in the cellar for a few years before tonight. Darker amber colour and for me better than the consistently average score this beer gets. It's smooth in the palate, has a decent wit style, citrus provides some sweetness and its coriander is an afterthought.

On tap Ølhallen. Pours a clear straw colour with a small off-white head. Aroma of blood orange and lemonade. Flavour of blood orange, bubble gum and grass and hay in the background. Has a light and watery mouth feel light body and no bitterness. It's all about blood orange. Light and not very interesting.

Thanks to Marko for this one! Paler than looks in the photo. Med body, med carbo. BBD 30.11.2024, pulled through incredibly. Only a little staleish maybe. Sweetish, a bit of oxi, but also med Belg phenols still, with light sour. Easy drink, tasty, good.
