440 ml can, from Vinmonopolet Sandnes Kvadrat. ABV is 10%. Opaque orange colour, small white head. Aroma and flavour of orange zest and yellow stonefruits, particularly apricots. Rich and smooth mouthfeel. Very refreshing for its strength.

Can. Hazy orange gold beer, small and short lived pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, a hint of viscosity, reasonable fine minerally carbonation on the back end. Smooth pale malts, a fairly forward creamy sweetness but it doesn't dominate. Cooling pine into alcoholic hops, a kinda semi ripe citrus vodka thing going on. Mild citrus peel bitterness and a touch of hop spice that fingers on. No alcohol heat. Not bad, just very obviously a 12% QIPA. Other breweries are hitting this level and even higher without making the alcohol obvious. Amusing all the same.

(Draft at Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival, 25 Oct 2025) Cloudy golden colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity nose with notes of mango, pineapple, tropical fruit, orange and a touch of alcohol. Fruity, sweetish taste with tropical fruit, mango, pineapple, orange, white bread, herbs, rosemary and a mild citric/herbal bitterness in a slightly boozy finish. Full body, quite sweet. On the strong and sweet side, but really rich and juicy. Very nice.
