Clear light to medium yellow color with a average to large, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, white to off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, grain, sweet malt, light hoppy, fruity sweet flowers. Flavor is moderate sweet and light to moderate bitter with a average duration, and a dry finish. Body is medium to light, texture is watery to oily, carbonation is soft. [20090707]

500 ml can (4,7%). Pale golden body with a decent white head. Light grainy aroma. Flavor is very light malt, refreshing and somehow a bit fruity acid. A hint of hops in the finish. Not much of a beer, still nothing wrong and quite refreshing.

500ml can (Systembolaget, Stockholm) - 4.7% version.
Sweet citrussy and light lagery taste, almost lager with a dash. Fizzy palate, but crisp and refreshing. Very citrussy taste, and a clean lager maltiness underneath. OK, this was a sauna beer, but dang, I drained that can dry and didn’t look back. If another can had been on offer, I’d have taken that too. Thin and throwaway, but it’s good for what it’s supposed to be - a crisp refreshing summer lager. And there’s snow outside...

Can,2009-06-1, 10 C AP: Pilsner yellow with extremly lively carbonation, high rocky head AR: Pilsner F: Fresh, little fruitiness, malty-nice suprise, - Could be a hit for those that likes this kind of lagers!

Big offwhite lasting head. Light yellow body with carbonation. Light peppery apple aroma with floral notes. Dryish dusty milky apple taste with peppery lemony floral notes. Mid-bodied. Fizzy mouthfeel. Dry (and faintly acidic) lemony mealy papery aftertaste with metallic vegetable notes. Mostly good, but the aftertaste kind of spoils it. (0.5l can, Systembolaget, Charlottenberg.)

500ml can, shared by Finn. Straw coloured body. Persistent white head. Subdued aroma of citric fruits. Semi sweet flavour of grainy malts with hoppy hints. Dry, rounded finish. Unvaried (Elsas, Skibotn 14.08.2009).

500 ml can. Pale golden colour. Crystal clear. Tall creamy white head. Gentle citrusy malt aroma. Light, but refreshing. The body is not too bad and there is quite a bit of bittering hops to balance things out. A rather simple beer, but refreshing enough. If you’re thirsty this works well.

0.5 l can, thanks hanniku! Golden color with fluffy head. Malty and honeyish aroma with notes of lemon. Malt forward flavor with honey, lemon and touch of herbal hops. Light lagers are rarely exciting but withing the category this is fairly good.

Boks 0,5l kjøpt på Systembolaget i Kiruna. Lys gylden farge. Lavt skum. Aroma av malt og kokt kål. Ualminnelig kjedelig. Søtlig helhetsinntrykk.
