500 ml can, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 5.0%. Opaque and yellow thick smoothie texture, no head. Lots of pulp in the mouthfeel. Aroma and flavour of mango, peach and passionfruit, moderately sour (lactic acid), distinctly sweet and fruity throughout. There is nothing here (except the alcohol) to remind you that this is a beer, but it sure is a splendid fruit smoothie.
