Hazy amber beer. Caramel malt nose. Softish palate. Hoppy but surprisingly mellow. There is plenty of hop here but just mellow grapefruit! Aniseed alcohol well blended in. Finishes a little dry and with a slightly warm afterglow. Drinkable but was expecting something with a lot more hop.

Trockener, etwas laffer Hopfenbeginn. Zitrusnoten, Reis. Sehr trockene Holznoten sind permanent vorhanden, eine angenehme Hopfigkeit kann kaum durchdringen. Mild bitterer Ausklang, erst im Nachgeschmack stärker bitter mit angenehm grasigen Noten. OK. 10/8/9/9/9/9

Bottle from Olbutikken. Slight haze on this amber beer. Good white head. Creamy pale malt, a little raw grain. Hops are piney with mild orange marmalade. Finishes soft and dry with a mildly bitter aftertaste, Alright but a little too malt led for me.
