This is a low-alcohol version of their 'Orange Ale' and is a part of their recently released trio of low-alcohol beers, which are sold both in six-packs with two bottles of each beer (150 SEK) and separately (30 SEK). This is the bottle with the blue cap.
Served in a Gulden Draak glass.
A: Pours a clear, golden liquid with a white sparkly head. Lots of CO2, but the head dissapears quickly. It goes almost flat within seconds.
S: Bitter orange peel and lemons, almost like bitter lemonade. Acidic citrus nose and light fruits. Grapes and orange zest.
T: Tastes like cheap low alcohol beer with orange peel in it, basically. A bit earthy after a few sips and a bit like bitter husks of malt.
M/D: Reminds me of the Monty Python quote: "American beer is like making love in a canoe. It's f-ing close to water!". This beer is very watery, and the mouthfeel is just about zero. Decent CO2, but that's about it. Doesn't leave any flavour on the palate nor the tongue either.
For 30 SEK (approx. $4!) a bottle I'd expect a much more interesting beer. Don't buy it.
