Tootjainfo: "English: The sunstone - much disputed among scholars. Did the Viking navigators really have such a tool that would help them point out what was east and what was west - even on a less than sunny day? We certainly believe so. Many years later no sunstone was needed when Amager Bryghus was invaded by what very much looked like Viking ancestors of American descent. Hailing from Munster, Indiana, Chris Boggess and Barnaby Struve of Three Floyds Brewing arrived not with a vengeance but with very loud King Diamond on their portable mp3 player. This was not a day for slaughter but for brewing. And brew we did. The mellow and dangerously quaffable Arctic SunStone is proof that even Viking warriors can have a more subtle side to them. All hail to Three Floyds.

Ingredients: Water. Malts: Pale, Munich, Melanoidin. Hops: Tomahawk, Citra, Centennial, Simcoe. Yeast: UK-ale."

Lihtne keskmist mõõtu pudel, kuldsel sildil hullunud viiking:) Valge vaht moodustab kahesentimeetrise kihi, mis on üle keskmise püsiv. Õlle värvus - õrnalt uduselt tumekuldne. Mõrkjas-magusas aroomis seguneb mango ja männimets, ananass ja miskipärast tuleb meelde koriander.

Esmamekk on keskmise tihedusega ja mõrkjas. Keskmaitses tunneb troopilisi puuvilju, mandariinikoort ja greibiseemneid, toorevõitu mangot ja üleküpset ananassi koos kuusevõrsetega. Lõppmekk muutub veidi hapukamaks, punase apelsini ja greibi sarnaseks. Järelmekk on kergelt ja kargelt mõrkjas, vaigune ja värskendav.

Keskmise kehaga, mõõdukalt karboniseerunud paletiga, mõrkjas-magusa-hapukas-mõrkja buketiga jõuline, kuid siiski kergelt joodav rüübe. Sobilik koos heeringaleivaga.
