COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Refresh your world!
Flavoured beer is a trendy drink being enjoyed in clubs, trend bars and summer outdoor events, it’s becoming more and more popular all over Europe. Saku has now introduced this category to the Estonian market. Saku Dlight is a soft beer drink with a hint of lemon. It can be characterised as extremely refreshing, slightly carbonized beverage with light flavour and no characteristic beer aroma. Saku Dlight is bottled into a custom-made transparent 0.33 l glass bottle, labeled by a new kind of etiquette.

Unattractive piss-green body. Medium head collapses right after forming. Weak (and therefore not so distracting) aroma of citric acid and seawater. Taste is sweet and citric, probably all just citric acid and colouring agent. No beer taste anywhere.

larsga (4435) - Oslo, NORWAY - JUN 6, 2009
Small white head doesn’t last. Pale yellow body with carbonation. Lemony soda aroma with sugary notes. Sweetish-dry lemony paper taste with sugary notes. Light body. No aftertaste. Useless. (0.33l bottle, Õlletorn, Tallinn.)

Bottle. Beer like European radler. But so watery. Can taste beer after the end. But this drink is not beer, more bad lemonade.

If I’m not dehydrated, I piss this colour. It’s closest to being a shandy. However, it’s less refreshing than any lemonade, and devoid of anything that can be recognised as beer. So in simple terms it’s the worst shandy you’ll ever drink. No summer day is ever hot enough to make this a pleasure to drink. Everyone who works in marketting at Saku, please kill yourselves.

faroeviking (8598) - Kongens Lyngby, FÖROYAR, FAROE ISLANDS - JAN 29, 2008
Bottle. Golden greenish colour with a short fizzy head. Sweetish aroma of lemon indeed. Soft and rather mild sweet lemon maltish flavour. Refreshing lemon (beer) water.

SaintMatty (2645) - Uppsala, SWEDEN - OCT 15, 2007
A very refreshing drink which on a summer’s day would go down quite nicely but as a beer, I hard to take seriously as I find it to be a real gimmick plus the beer taste is extremely subtle and faint.

sayravai (4526) - Helsinki, FINLAND - FEB 18, 2007
(Bottled) Slightly hazy, pale green color with a very small, lemonadey head. Aroma of sprite and dish-washing liquid. Sweet and acidic lemon-lime flavor with nothing (like hops) to connect it mentally with beers. Light-bodied, lemonadey-carbonated palate. I don’t drink lemonade, so why would I drink this?

oh6gdx (15510) - Vasa, FINLAND - SEP 12, 2006
Bottled. Pale lime greenish colour, not much head. Aroma is lemon and hoppyness. Flavous is hops and kinda bitterish citrusfruits. Quite sour aftertaste. Atleast better than the Krombacher Cab Lemon...
