Canned (BB 04/2004)
Lager color, small white head. Metallic and rubbery malt aroma. Semi-sweet malty flavor, hints of rubber. Unclean palate.

Worst one between Carlsberg Elephant, Slots Guld and Harboe Danish Pilsner. Very little aroma, and the end of the can tasted like hangover. Wouldn’t recommend.

Can. Pours a clear straw yellow with a big off-white head. Decent lacing. Tart, somewhat spicy hop aroma with an overtone of apple. Fruity notes as it warms. Flavour is sweet and a bit tart, with cereals and a cardboard touch. Feels a bit stale. Like the aroma; fruity notes as it warms, along with a metallic touch. Tart, sweetish finish; like a poor white wine. Mildly bitter. Meh. 04.11.11.

Clear golden of color with a small white head. Sweet aroma of malt , honey with notes of grain. Malty flavor of grain with notes of hay and hops

Canned, thanks oh6gdx! Clear golden, mid-sized head. Tinny fruity nose. Sweet with clean, hard mouthfeel. Maize and sugar, no flavours that really belong in a beer. Bit of honey in the finish.

Can
Blond color; eggwhite-like head. Cheap Lager aroma with light lemonade. The flavor is very poor, cheap, of dirty water, metallic. Almost non-existing bitterness. Trash.

Can. Clear yellow colour with medium creamy white mostly lasting head. Malty aroma. Sweet flavor. Watery palate.

Can. Golden colour with a white head. Aroma is alcohol, malt, fruit. Flavour is malt, alcohol, fruit, grain. Boring beer.

I poured this beer from a can I purchased in Iceland into a pint glass to drink. The beer had a clear gold color with an amber hue and a big, foamy-creamy white head that had a lot of cling and ample retention. The beer had a grassy hop aroma with some straw, grain, and barley malt scents too. The taste featured grain and grassy hops, and was fairly bitter with a slight sour effect as well. It had average carbonation, a dry, average-to-thin mouthfeel and not much of a presence of alcohol.

Thanks to HenrikS and DØE: Medium yellow colour and clear. Has a white head, mostly lasting. Aroma of sweet syrup. Flavor is moderate sweet. Oily texture.

It smells like water and industrial beer. It’s gold and clear, and the flavor is of water and a little bit of sweet malt. I think giraffe’s would like it.
