440 ml can, from Vinmonopolet Stavanger Hinna. Pale golden colour, moderate to small white head. Aroma of pilsener malts, flowers and honey. Flavour again of pilsener malts and Munich malts, floral hops first, becomes herbal and distinct in the finish, medicinal in the aftertaste.

330 ml can, from Vinmonopolet Stavanger Hinna. ABV is 5.3%. Slightly hazy pale golden colour, small white head. Aroma of pilsener malts, wild mountain thyme, heather, honey and a hint of blueberries. Refreshing flavour with the same elements, not too sweet, moderate hops. Nice beer.

January 2022: 500 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 4.7%. Deep golden colour, moderate white head. Very moderate aroma, weak notes of hops and grain, hints of toffee and biscuits. The flavour has decent hops on a slightly sweet base of moderate malts, with a hint of caramel. Distinct hoppy bitterness in the finish and aftertaste. Not a bad beer, but far from the best offering from St. Peter’s.

750 ml "champagne" bottle, as Andersen Sur Lie Æble Brut, from Vinmonopolet Sandnes Kvadrat. ABV is 11.5%. Based on Danish Belle de Boskoop apples. Clear pale golden colour, pours sparkling with a shortlived white head. Aroma of apples and apple kernels, hints of nuts. Bone dry flavour, "brut" indeed. Notes of apples, hints of citrus and nuts. Must be good with food, but hardly worth the high price.

500 ml can, from Coop Extra Prestemarka, Tau. ABV is 4.0%. Brewed in Norway by Hansa Borg. Crystal clear pale golden colour, moderate to small white head. Sweetish aroma of pilsener malts, hints of flowers and honey. Thin mouthfeel. Bland flavour, a little malts, very moderate hops. Just another LITE beer for the slimmers. Utterly forgettable.
