Bottle thanks to ?, rbesg07. Alround not a very hot vienna, i thought it just another pish lager. Cornish malts, lacking any character, waste of time.

Can. [thank you, Yngwie]
A nice, amber colour. A large, creamy lightly off-white head. Lasting quite some time. Aroma is malty sweet, quite syrupy. Some light caramel nots as well. Low to medium carbonation, quite watery. Flavour is not as sweet as expected, but generally there isn’t that much of anything, really.

Can 500ml @ home Pours clear golden with a off-white head. Aroma has notes of malt, grain, hay and cabbage. Taste is light to medium sweet and light bitter. Body is light, texture is thin, carbonation is soft.

Can, RBESG Grand Tasting 07. Clear golden, thin white head. Nose is hoppy, malt balanced. Watery. Mouth is watery, banana hop. Terrible.

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

Light amber color. Very malty flavor and aroma. I'm afraid this bottle is eldery, so unfortunately I cannot give a proper rating. Would like to try a fresh one again.

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

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.
