One of the better Swedish mainstream lagers. A little malty, and perhaps a little bit of bitterness too.

UPDATED: MAR 1, 2012 Bottle. Yellow colour with a white head. Medium sweet malty nose. Light malt and light hop flavour.

(Bottle, 0.33 l, 20111115) The beer poured very pale golden and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma was metallic and sweet. Palate was light bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were metallicness, sweetness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet and bitter. Clean, flawless and characterless beer.

Wässriger Geschmack, weder im Antrunk noch im Mittelteil in irgendeiner Form aromatisch. Minimal getreidig-herb im Abgang, süßlicher Nachhall. Pures Wasser. 5/4/8/6/6/5

Golden with a white head. Pretty clean malty aroma with a touch of apple peel. Sweet grainy, malty flavour with some apple peel, a metallic touch, and a hint of alcohol

33cl. can from a local beer retailer. It pours a clear pale golden liquid with a medium dissipating but somehow lasting white head that leaves no lacing. The aroma is balanced, with some citron and herbal hints of hops, as well as a malty background. Straw, distant grains and a vinegary touch complete the nose. It tastes likewise, quite citrony. It is low sweet, bitter and sour. In the mouth it feels mild but lively carbonated, oily, with a light-medium body and a dry finish, with a sweetish and slightly bitter aftertaste of malt and citron. Presentation is quite standard for an ordinary but smooth, refreshing and very drinkable pale lager.

Can 33cl from Papsoe thanks. Nose is on caramel malt. Aroma is on dry malt, dusty and peppery hops, a very basic lager.
