    330 ml can, from Vinmonopolet Herbarium. ABV is 8%. Opaque yellow colour, moderate white head. Aroma of citrus, yellow plums, crushed white grapes, hints of guava. Citric flavour, a bit on the sweet side, notes of said fruits, moderate to low bitterness. Nice to drink.

    Aroma: 3 | Appearance: 4 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3

    February 2022: 330 ml bottle, from SPAR Jørpeland. ABV is 0.5%. Brewed with 2% mango purée. Cloudy brownish-yellow colour, moderate to small white head. Aroma of mango, wort and baby porridge, hints of over-boiled vegetables. Flavour with the same elements, but not too sweet. Fairly sharp and metallic bittering hops in the finish. Won't buy again.

    May 2020: 330 ml bottle, from Helgø Meny Stadionparken. ABV is 0.5%. Slightly hazy golden colour, moderate white head. Aroma of fruity / citrussy hops, hints of tropical fruits. Citric and thin mouthfeel. The flavour has a distinct bitterness of metallic hops, hints of citrus and resin. I've had worse n/a beers, but this one is still not good enough to buy again.

  • Aroma: 4 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 5

    750 ml clear bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 7.5%. Some sediment and floaties in the bottle. Hazy red to purple colour, shortlived off-white to pink head. Strong sweetish unfresh aroma of blueberries and honey, apples in the background. Surprisingly dry flavour, crisp apples and blueberries, a hint of honey. Not one I'll buy again.

  • FjordSider Sprudlende Nordvest
    rated 3.1 5 months ago

    Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

    375 ml corked & caged clear bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 8.5%. Clear and very pale straw colour, pours vigorously sparkling with a large but shortlived white head. Moderate aroma of apples. Fizzy mouthfeel. Dry flavour, moderate notes of apples.

  • Nedstrand NB Aprikos Pilsner
    rated 2.1 5 months ago

    Aroma: 4 | Appearance: 5 | Mouthfeel: 4 | Flavor: 4 | Overall: 4

    May 2020: 330 ml bottle, batch #31, from Det Gode Brygg, Kvadrat. ABV is 4.7%. Clear and very pale yellow colour, small white head. Aroma of dried apricots and apricot essence, a bit "artificial". The flavour has the same apricot notes on the base of a run-of-the-mill pilsener, too modest hops. Nothing here to write home about.

  • Solhøi Ciderkin
    rated 2.9 5 months ago

    February 2021: 330 ml bottle, vintage 2019, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. Made of the residue after the must (apples and plums) for Solhøi's better ciders has been pressed. Water and sugar have been added. Spontaneously fermented. ABV is 5%. Very pale straw colour, only the slightest haziness, no head, hardly any carbonation. Aroma of apples and yeast, a hint of plums. Dry flavour, notes of sour apples, hints of yeast and mould. Won't buy again.

    June 2020: Shared 750 ml bottle, vintage 2017, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 6.2%. Clear and very pale straw colour. Nice aroma of apples, hints of sulphites. The mouthfeel is somewhat watery. Dry flavour, little apple flavour compared to the fine ciders from Hardangergutane we had before.
