Orange, biscuit malt, pine and grapefruit peel aroma. Slightly hazy golden yellow with large white head. Moderately sweet orange, biscuit malt, and moderately bitter pine and grapefruit peel flavor. Good body and balance. Pretty good.

19.2oz can from Albertsons. Clear golden pour with a lasting foamy head and active carbonation. Light hoppy aroma, pine, citrus. Taste is more of the classic hop flavors, fruity, light hop resin. Smooth and approachable for a 9.0% beer.

Can. Hoppy aroma and taste, citrus fruit, resin notes, medium bitter, light sweet notes. Mesium to full body, hoppy fruity bitter finish with light boozy notes. Ok.

355ml can from Vinmonopolet Nettbutikk. Shared with Finn. Hazy orange coloured body, filmy layer, scattered lacing. Promising smell of apricot and citrus. Balanced taste profile of dried fruits, passion fruit, herbs and cereal malts. Dried fruity ending, lingering. Well bodied. Pretty good, just a bit heavy to drink. (Bergstua, Malangen 15.06.2021).
