What about the beer?
Colour is hazy orange with a two-finger thick white head. Aroma has
superfresh grapefruit and sweet orange. Taste begins with fresh sweetish
grapefruit. Light and fresh grapefruit takes over with sweet orange
notes. Towards the end citrus lemonade flavour becomes
distinctive. Aftertaste has lightly bitter grapefruit and mild
dryness.
Light American Pale Ale with a genuine grapefruit juice flavour. The
taste is very near to Finnish long drink - lonkero, in Finnish. Clearly a
summer beer that stays a bit thin behind the citrus. Well made brew, still. The Stavanger brewery has shown it can manage the low abv limits of the Scandinavian countries (as we all know as a fact, Denmark is just a peninsula of northern Germany).
Ölbeat
The beer and its moment probably don't deserve this song, but having this - and many other - kind of beers available for me to drink and enjoy makes me feel lucky. And the last time I checked, I was a man. Whether I have any balls or not, doesn't make a difference - I'm a lucky man.
