500 ml can, shared with my son, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 5.6%. Clear golden colour, large to moderate white head. Sweetish aroma of malts and newmown grass. The flavour is malty, grainy and fairly bland, but not unpleasant. A hint of honey.

Årets første reiting i solkroken, en nydelig dag i mars: klar lys gylden med fint skum som varer. Citrusfriskt anslag med lett florale toner og fin bitterhet i avslutningen. Ganske saftig ettersmak med assosiasjoner til clementiner, så her går det greit unna. Utesesongen er endelig igang igjen! 0,5 boks fra fjernlageret i Verksgata.
