A yellow beer in the lighter end of the scale with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of bread. The flavor is somewhat cardboardy with light notes of malt, leading to a boring dry end.

(Can 50 cl) Clear, pilsener golden with a white head. Sweetish, malty aroma. Fairly sweet mouthfeel, medium body with malty and lightly fruity notes. Very limited hoppiness in the finish. Quite a decent lager with lovely Emperor penguins on the can. 181106

50 cL can, thanks to Papsoe. Pours clear and golden yellow with a lacing white head. Light sweet corn aroma. Flavour is mild sweet corn with a light bitterness. Ends light bitter into the far finish.

Bottled in Trysil. Clear pale golden, small head. Dryish and fruity, light bodied with clean, rouned mouthfeel. Mildly malty with low hop rate and no bitterness. Rather edgeless. A weak effort by Aass, but their malt structure is quite superior to most commercial brewers, so the even their Ice Beer is pretty drinkable.

Clear golden with medium head. Mild sweet aroma with grassy notes. Grainy flavor with cardboard and light nutty notes.

Can. Golden beer with a decent white head, leaving nice lacings. The aroma is grainy and not much else. Flowery, perfumed and grainy flavor with a dry, quite bitter finish. Watery body. (060304)
