A medium malty sweet taste, aroma is also malty. Not much bitterness. Colour is yellow and the small head that sits on top is white. (Bottle)

0.33l bottle. Pours a clear unfiltered golden body with a small sidesticking bubbly white head. Aroma has some malts, sweet corn-like notes, and some watery hops. Not much more than that. Average carbonation, soft oily mouthfeeling and medium to light-bodied. Mild malty flavors with a distinct corn-like flavor. Ends mildly bitter, kinda watery and heavily boring.

Golden with a lasting white head. Malty aroma of grain and biscuit with a touch of DMS vegetable. Dry and grainy flavour with vegetables

Yet another one in the Norwegian "Gull" (Gold) series of stronger lagers. For some reason, this has been categorized as a pale lager, whereas its counterparts from the other macros in Norway are in the "Premium Lager" category. Personally, I really don’t see any difference between them. Aass Gull manages to avoid the imbalanced alcohol-feel haunting the others of the series, but then again it is also 1 % ABV lower than the rest of the field. Like the other "gull"-beers, this is a rather boring, mediocre lager beer and nothing more.
