    One of St. Peter's lightest beer, in a darker green (than usual) flask-looking bottle. Pours a slightly hazy golden-orange colour with a huge creamy-foam off-white head, lots of lacing, great retention and tons of tiny bubble carbonation. The nose is quite hoppy on this one, especially for a light brew. Watery mouthfeel that is pretty thin, almost flat like it came from a cask. Still, after a while, a nice 3mm coating tops the beer. The hop is very present in the taste too. Floral and mild bitterness, but the lightness of this one creates only a light aftertaste. Well brewed, but would not seek again (as this has the hop I don't like so much - that taste rusty). Overall, quite a powerful scent and start in the taste, for such a light brew.

    500 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 3.7%. Amber to brown colour, moderate off-white head, nice lacing. Fine aroma of malts, toffee and biscuits. The flavour is nicely balanced between the malts and the hops, also notes of biscuits and nuts, hints of caramel. Fairly dry. Distinctly hoppy finish and a long aftertaste. A very enjoyable session bitter!

    Bottle: Poured a light brown color ale with a small bubbly head that disappeared way too quickly. Aroma of grainy unrefined dry malt is not the most interesting. Taste is also dominated by this unrefined grainy taste with a dry ending. Carbonation is very low with no noticeable hops. Very uninteresting and boring.

    Botttle: Poured a dark gold-amber with a small rocky cap..low carbonation. Light fruity aroma..peaches and some wet hay, bit of musty sweetness. Nice mild caramel tastes in the front, then golding bittering, light sweetness like dark toffee, light fruity notes, clean wet bitter finish...soft mineral mouth feel. Pretty fair cask-styled light bitter,

    Clear amber , rich snow white head. Bland aroma of straw. Rather bitter grassy flavour, notes of butter and straw. Dry finish of grape-peels. Decent and quite refreshing bitter.
