Can at home. Pours hazy golden with white head. Distinct aroma of sulfur that lasts. Else aroma of peaches and fruity esters like bananas, notes of tropical fruits. Tastes slightly sweet with little bitterness. Thin bodied. Not too bad for a beer with artificial aroma.

500 ml can, from Rema 1000 Jørpeland. ABV is 4.3%. Clear golden colour, moderate white head. Aroma of sweetish malts and newmown grass, some floral hops. Thin and citric mouthfeel. The flavour has a little citrus and sweet notes of toffee, moderate bittering hops in the aftertaste. Could have been worse.

Can. It pours a clear golden colored body under a white head. Some lacing. The aroma is lightly grainy, quite fruity, with pear, grass and some cellar, concrete dust, hay, honey hints. It's medium and semi-dry, softly carbonated, with a very gentle bitterness. The flavor is quite fruity, with pale malts in the back. Hay, grass, pear hints. Medium length gentle and fruity finish. Dull and then some. 240405
