Bottle. Lightly foggy golden, minimal white head. Lots of dregs in the bottle. Distinct apple aroma, cider-like, with hints of pilsner. Medium body, very gentle carbonation. Some fruity acidity, gentle bitterness. Cider, fresh apple and some core notes in the flavor, pilsner in the back. Lightly yeasty. Kind of refreshing, but not particularly good. 250317

On tap at Patricks. Unclear golden with a nice, lacing white head. A bit difficult to place the aroma, pale malt, yeast, herbs and hint of ester I think. Flavor is quite interesting as well, the pilsner seems to stay in the background as a base with lots of subtle flavors from malt, yeast, some general fruitiness and some light but very refreshing berries. Moderate bitterness but sure a complex and interesting interpretation of a lager/pilsner, way more interesting and the easy way out of just make a regular lager camouflaged by tons of Citra dry hopping. Intereasting, unusually and very balanced, in particular the herbal flavor.

Tap @ Patricks. Almost black body with a good locking, medium sized, dense tan head. Aroma has dark malt and distinct aquavit flavor, not the spicy type but the boozy kind of aquavit in a positive meaning. Flavor is sweet, dark malt, mild roasted, smooth, mild roast, dry fruit almost in the background from the aquavit flavor. Don’t really know how to describe this, the beer is OK but kinda discreet and gain a lot out of the aquavit flavor. Fine body and pleasant aftertaste.

Bottle. A bubbly two-finger off-white head forms on top of a more or less clear, well sparkling golden colored body. Some lacing. The aroma is quite weird, grains, cellar, licorice root, flowers, caramel and a foresty hint. It's medium bodied and lightly cardboardy on the palate, nicely carbonated and a bit more sweet than I'd prefer. Not much bitterness going on. There's a touch of orange in the flavor, else it's more or less like the aroma. Perhaps a bit more generic herbal and less licorice root-ish. Medium length finish. Well... it's sort of interesting but I'm glad I shared the bottle, else most of it would've met the sink. 240820

On tap at Sørlandet Matfestival. A clear one, golden in color and with a small, dense, white head. Fruity aroma, piney and peppery, with grass and a nice maltiness. It's medium bodied and crisp, dry and nicely carbonated, with a gentle bitterness. Fruity flavor, piney and very lightly peppery, with a nice bready, malty backdrop. Some metallic notes in the finish. Quite nice this one. 240711
