The norwegian version tested - 4,5% (vol.) - Easy drinkable. You almost don’t feel any taste at all!

Fruity sweetness, with grains playing in the background. Slight bitterness to the finish. Hazy amber colour with white head. (Can)

This is a Vienna-style brew. Also it’s probably my favorite lager. A nice amber appearance. Nose is a mix of fruit (apples mostly) malt and a whif of spice. Very smooth and drinkable. Cost is the only negative it’s over $12 per six pack where I live. Re-Rate: I have to drop the numbers just a bit. It’s hard to rate a lager (albiet, a very good one) at a 4.0 or above. Another RE-RATE: I am growing tired of this beer despite really liking it intially. Now I find it lacking a bit in flavor.

Pours a rather pale brew, but a tad darker than an ordinary pilsner. Smooth, nice mouthfeel. Rather on the sweet side, with aromas of fruit, raisins, and a hint of fresh tobacco.

This beer smelled like pure skunk. Taste was a bit better, but it was still rather flavorless.

For a lager, it isn’t that great, even for a Vienna Style lager. This is certainly not the best Norway has to offer and I would recommend against seeking this light malt, skunk nosed brew out. Seek out their Bock.

rating this as what they use to call there dortmund style with the dude on the label (founder)smokink a pipe. this is (was) a excellent dortmund full of malt and just enough hops i have not tried it lately

A unique lager with very light aromas and just a hint of malt. Although a lager, it is amber in color. Very drinkable with occasional malty flavors and little hop bitterness compared to the average lagers. It has a dry feel, and is very refreshing.
