Science - Botany
Norwegian term or phrase: alåkerbær
Used by a respondent in a Danish consumer survey. I suspect this is either related to, or a misspelling of, "åkerbær" (Arctic raspberry (Rubus arcticus).) I found a picture of a supposed alåkerbær at http://www.minebilder.no/show_image.php?bid=92376055.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Actually, it appears to be a cross of two different kinds of Arctic raspberry. I'm going to use "All-field raspberry" to distinguish the hybrid, as that seems to be the practice of at least some in the field. (Yes, that pun IS intentional.)
