Ooh, this is a pleasant surprise. A rather sweet, malty lager that is nothing like a pils. A wee bit fizzy, yet the head fades fast for some reason! Tastes darker than it looks. The color is copper-ish. Three malts do the heavy lifting (pilsner, munich and caramel), in case you give a damn. A ’classic’ indeed! One of my favorite session beers.

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 surprisingly good beer! I got the can version, different, enjoyable. I am normally not a fan of light lagers, but I am a fan of Aass classic lager. Very surprised this beer came out of Norway.

Beautiful light amber color with a bountiful head. Sour apple/lager smell with similar flavor. Very crisp with an empty lager-type finish. Tastes silimilar to a yuengling but maltier with a sour apple kick.

This beer blew my expectations away. A beer I buy often. Wonderfully complex nose, fruity and rich hop notes with a very generous, pleasing body. It is crisp and yet not ’just another lager’.
