500 ml bottle, from Det Gode Brygg, Sandnes. ABV is 4.4%, Deep golden colour, moderate white head. Surprisingly dull aroma, notes of grain and dust, only the faintest hint of fruity hops. The flavour has a much better presence of hops, notes of citrus and berries. Nice to drink. The finish is not very bitter though.

On tap at Avenue Pub. Pours a cloudy orange gold with medium off white head leaving spotty lacing. The aroma is floral and bready malt. Medium body, earthy hop, caramel, bitter finish, decent.

Bottle. Clear amber with a small cream head. aroma of boiled sweets, berries, herbal lemon drops. Drier than suggested by the aroma so the malt flavours are tauter and fruitier than the aroma suggested to me. Fairly light bodied, disappointingly a bit lifeless (I poured out the dregs b/c I was skeptical about the bottle conditioning)..Carbonation is pleasantly lowish. Berries, spices, herbal lemon. Firm bitterness. No idea what makes this an old ale. OK.
