BOTTLE at brewpub, 14.2% abv. Drinks like a liqueur with candies and herbs, fruity tartness and warming alcohol. Good, though a bit too boozy.

ON TAP at brewpub. Fresh juicy and pithy grapefruit, abrasive hoppy mouth feel and juniper spice. A nice Nordic twist for a hoppy beer. Excellent.

330ml Bottle - Golden with a haze and a white head. Herbs (I am not familiar enough with meadowsweet and yarrow to discern them), citrus and spice in the aroma. Fruity, sweet and herbal taste with a slight tartness and notes of lemon, peach and grapefruit. Refreshing, enjoyable and interesting.

330ml Bottle - Hazy amber with a smalll head. Pine, grapefruit, apricot and toffee in the aroma. Hopppy, fruity, tangy and slightly earthy taste with nuts, grapefruit, raisins, dried apricot and pine. Nice but am keen to try a fresher version of this (this one is 6 months old) as I think it could be even better.
