martinen	2 Double O Premium Lager Tuesday, February 12, 2013
Bart	2.1 Edel-Bräu Clear blond coloured beer iwth some very light carbonation and an average white head. Refreshing light hoppy and light fruity aroma. Medium rather flat palate. Finish is sweet, grainy to dough like hinted. OK aroma, bad taste. Saturday, August 20, 2011
Neeskens	1.8 Double O Premium Lager Sample @ SBWF ’10. Veery light yellow. Weak malty aroma. Even weaker buttery taste but still fairly free of imperfaction. Very refreshing would be it’s best feature, but at the end of the day extremly boring. Still better then som other very light brews. Wednesday, November 17, 2010
DrBeer	3.4 Rommehed Dalaöl Orange with thin white head. Sweet-malty aroma with notes of licorice and butter. Soft. Dry malty flavour with notes of licorice and butter. Somewhat hoppy and soft. Wednesday, July 28, 2010
Svesse	2.7 Hummel Original (Bottle, Hummelstugan, Åre, Sweden, 13 March 2008) Golden yellow colour with frothy, white head. Malty, clean nose with notes of bread, grass and hay. Malty, clean taste with bread, grass and discreet notes of hops in the finish. Fairly dry, medium body. A decent pilsner, but wouldn’t suffer from slightly more bitterness. To be honest I haven’t got a clue to what brewery brews this beer at the moment, since Avesta is no longer with us and the label contained no information on the topic. Sunday, March 16, 2008
omhper	3.4 Hummel Original Bottled (rating from 1998 when the beer was brewed at Jämtland). Golden colour, rich head. Some grassy hops up front. Fresh with rounded mouthfeel and solid body. Medium bitterness. Tuesday, February 20, 2007
omhper	1.9 Munktells Starköl [Bottled at Sundbyholms Slott, Eskilstuna] Clear golden, brief head. Papery nose. Sweet and fruity with somewhat raw and syrupy mouthfeel. Some malt provided medium body. Finished off by stale hops offering low bitterness. Sunday, June 11, 2006
larsniclas	2.1 Avesta Country 5.3% Bottled. Pale golden, large white head. Cereal aroma and lot of peas... Ok maltiness but an international, bland lager. Saturday, April 29, 2006
gnoff	3 Rommehed Oktoberfestbier Bottle from Swedish "Systembolaget" in November 2005. Clear golden color, white head. Mix of hops and malt in the scent and flavor. Quite nice for being an october fest beer, better than the Spaten I tried. Saturday, April 15, 2006
sayravai	1.7 Rommehed Oktoberfestbier (Bottled) Golden color with a medium, foamy and quite tight head. Very metallic, slightly acidic aroma with some malt hints. Strongly acidic, slightly buttery-malty and sweetish flavor with a strong metallic feel. Light to medium-bodied palate with medium carbonation. There can be no excuse for a beer as metallic as this one. A hint for the brewer: An oktoberfest should be sweetish-malty - not acidic-metallic. Saturday, October 8, 2005
hammenlind	2.7 Rommehed Oktoberfestbier Pours golden with a thick diminishing white head. Malty, slight hoppy nose with a spicy touch. Smooth, somewhat metallic flavour with some hints of toffee. A little saltyness is sensible in finish. Drinkable, but not overwhelming. Thursday, October 6, 2005
oh6gdx	1.6 Rommehed Oktoberfestbier Bottled. Golden colour, huge creamy white head. Malt and cooked vegetables in aroma. Flavour is very boring, vegetably and malty with small hoppy bitterness and dryness in finish. Lagerish... Tuesday, October 4, 2005
TBone	1.7 Rommehed Oktoberfestbier Bottled (BB 02/2006) Golden color, huge creamy white head. Harsh malty, lemony dish water nose. Medium-bodied. Quite watery, sweet malty. Not much oktoberfest-style found here, more like a bulk lager. Monday, October 3, 2005
Papsoe	2.9 Rommehed Dalaöl (Bottle 50 cl) Pale pilsener golden with a handsome head. Incredibly lovely hop aroma (Saaz?) without making the beer particularly bitter. Some underlying malty sweetness. Nice brew. 050503 Wednesday, September 14, 2005
omhper	1.7 Gräsmarks Öl Bottled. Pale golden, very brief head. Light papery malt aroma. Fairly sweet and light bodied with rounded but watery mouthfeel. Notes of soap and vegetables as well as metal. A short blast of grassy bitterness finishes it off. Not exactly an attention grabber. Wednesday, August 10, 2005
omhper	1.6 Fors Gammeldags Svagdricka Bottled. Copper colour, no head. Plum aroma and flavour. Sweet with clean mouthfeel. Lightly appley. A simplistic svagdricka with more light beer character than traditional svagdricka flavour. Sunday, August 7, 2005
omhper	2.3 Avesta Country Klass 1 Bottled. Pale golden, rich but brief head. Papery, buttery malt dominates from nose to finish. The low gravity is revealed by a touch of menthe and a very light body. It is sweet and rounded up front, but there’s a touch of sharp metal in the finish. Well above average for a 2.2% lager. Sunday, August 7, 2005
omhper	2.7 Avesta Country 3.5% Bottled. Pale golden, firm head. Sourdough aroma. Dry and light bodied with some pleasant malt flavour, but very low hop rate. Clean and well made mid strength lager in need of more hops. Sunday, August 7, 2005
IslandHaole	3.3 Mora JulÖl (-2005) A clear Brown color with a large-bubbled, but short lived foamy head. Sweet, rich malty nose with a hint of smoke. Chewy sweet malts with some earthy hops. A slight bitter aftertaste with that hint of smoke again. Not much of a "Winter" beer but quite an easy drinking, non-offensive and interesting brew that I’m happy to have tasted! Wouldn’t mind knocking several of these back! Thanks to Per for this one! Friday, July 8, 2005
Papsoe	2 Double O Premium Lager (Bottle 33 cl) Very beautiful golden lager, decent head that doesn’t hold though. Nice balance between malts and hops, but still just an average lager. 020105 Wednesday, April 27, 2005
Papsoe	2.4 Rommehed Oktoberfestbier (Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful full golden colour without much head. Not much body and not really that different to a standard lager. 280803 Wednesday, April 27, 2005
bark	2.6 Rommehed Dalaöl Bottle. The colour is gold; the off-white foam is finger thick. The smell is weak with some sweet malt. The carbonation is a bit sharp with small bubbles. The taste starts with gentle sweet malt, some bitterness and a weak body. The aftertaste is short with notes of chemical hops, gravy and a little alcohol. This is yet another unexciting corporate lager that attempts to look like an old-fashioned beer from a small brewery. In Sweden, we call it “the Mariestad trick”. Monday, March 28, 2005
oh6gdx	3 Rommehed Dalaöl Bottled. Dark golden with small white head. Caramel and a bit of honey in the aroma. The taste is first pretty bitter and turns sweeter (notes of caramel and honey. Tuesday, February 15, 2005

rickgordon	1.3 Mullhytte Öl 3.5% Bottled. Pale golden. Skunky nose, plus canned mackerel. Papery palate, absolutely no bitterness. Watery. Lots of Co2. Wednesday, December 8, 2004
Jeppe	2.7 Mora JulÖl (-2005) Sampled from bottle at Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival 2004 (#28). Disappearing head, clear dark brown body. Aroma is dominated by malt with hints of grass and hop. Flavor is rather thin and weak. Mostly sweet malty and brown sugary. Uninteresting. Monday, November 29, 2004
Jeppe	1.9 Rommehed Oktoberfestbier Pours a thin white head on a hazy yellow body. Herb, citrus and hop aroma with cheesy tones. Also hops and herbs in the flavor. Foamy mouthfull. Monday, November 22, 2004

rlgk	0.9 Mullhytte Öl 3.5% This is a "folköl" made for a ICA-supermarket i Mullhyttan, Sweden. I think its nice that someone likes to do this, but this beer is really bad. As pale yellow it can get without being like water. Boring aroma. Watery with chemical notes and a bitter finish. Friday, October 15, 2004
screwball	1.8 Mora JulÖl (-2005) Dark amber. A thin and vinous beer. I can´t say I liked this one. Hopfully better at Christmas. Sunday, October 10, 2004
rickgordon	2.1 Mora JulÖl (-2005) Draught at Stockholm Beer Fstival. Clear dark amber. Woody nose, along with dishwasher liquid and cleaning agent. Soapy mouthfeel, sorish flavour and bad diacetyl. Friday, October 8, 2004
rlgk	2.2 Mora JulÖl (-2005) Nice shiny amber. Malty aroma with toffe. Has a rather thin body but still an aggressive flavor. I did not like this flavor, I hope it gets better til x-mas... Sunday, October 3, 2004
omhper	3.5 Mora JulÖl (-2005) Bottled. Nut brown. Toffee and caramel aroma. Sweet and soft. Low bitterness. Pleasant but unassuming. This license brewed beer will be replaced eventually by another christmas beer (Midvinterbrygd), brewed in Mora. Saturday, September 25, 2004
pilsnerrogge	1.6 Rommehed Dalaöl Pale amber colour, medium head. Strange rubber aroma. Quite sweet flavour with an unpleasant bitterness. Crap. Friday, September 24, 2004
rlgk	2.3 Rommehed Dalaöl Amber/golden, with a small head. Malty aroma with fruits and butter, also some hops. Boring flavor with a late bitterness. Monday, September 20, 2004

rickgordon	1.9 Rommehed Dalaöl Bottled. Dark golden with a decent head. Canned fruit up front, followed up by a suggested bitterness, also a little dry in the finish. Naah... Thursday, September 9, 2004
ante	1.9 Rommehed Dalaöl Golden with low creamy white head. Sharp grass, raw chemicals and hops in aroma. Thin and unclean unclean flavour with hints of candied fruit. Short and rather sharp bitterness in finish. Monday, September 6, 2004
Nate	1.3 Avesta Country 5.3% Beany, grassy hops aroma. Slightly skunked, band aids or sulfur. Some wheat bread sweetness to it as well. Pale sparkling yellow with small foamy white lacing head. Light medium watery body with medium-high carbonation. Tastes pretty stale. Some sweetness to start, but followed to finish with some dry papery taste, light acidity, and medium bitterness. After is fairly smooth, more papery taste and a medium lasting bitterness. Reminds me of something like Strohs or PBR. Saturday, August 28, 2004
