COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Vi spurgte vores strømlinede marketingsdirektør om, hvilken øl der kunne illustrere dødssynden Grådighed. Efter blot et enkelt sekunds betænkningstid svarede han: ”Hvorfor gør vi ikke bare det samme som alle de store aktører i branchen: vi brygger en røvbillig øl og sælger den til en premium pris. Det er sgu’ da grådighed. ” Vores marketingsdirektør er en klog mand, så naturligvis gjorde vi, som han sagde. Og vi satte endda et billede af ham på etiketten. Øllen endte så faktisk ret ok. Det er en helt regulær sydtysk pilsner uden så meget pjat. Håber I kan li’ den – det ku’ vi.
Vi er ikke stolte over at være syndere, men i det mindste er vi åbne omkring det...

English: We asked our smartass marketing director what beer would be a good choice for the sin of Greed. He only pondered for a sec and then said: “We should simply do as all the big players do: make a cheapass beer and sell it at a premium prize – that’s greed for you alright”. Our marketing director is a smart guy, so of course we did what he said. We even put a picture of him on the label. The beer however turned out pretty badass. It’s a straight up German Pilsener without any fuss. Dig it – we do.
We’re not proud to be sinners, but at least we’re open about it…

Brewed from pilsener malts, Tettnanger and Hallertau Mittelfrüh hops and a Southern German lager yeast.

Håller med föregående talare. Pilsnern saknar humle och god beska. Smak och doft av humle, malt, örter, gräs och lite smörig.

Vignale (1404) - Malmö, SWEDEN - MAR 4, 2013
En extremt tråkig öl, ilket jag antar är vad de ville göra. Smakar verkligen som en industrilager. För söt, lite smörig, ingen humle/beska, tråkig maltextrakt. Hoppas de använder pengarna till sina andra konceptöl.

omhper (17561) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - MAR 4, 2013
Bottled, from Systembolaget. Cloudy pale golden, rocky head - looks delicious. Very distinct grassy hop aroma. Bone dry with clean, crisp mouthfeel. Plenty of salty, grassy hops, remarkably bitter finish. Pretty much very close to my ideal beer, however the lack of malt softness makes it a bit harsh and inky.

ekstedt (4597) - Göteborg, SWEDEN - MAR 4, 2013
Bottle (50cl) from Systembolaget. Shady golden, large fluffy white head. Grainy, hayish and earthy aroma with herbal hops. Light to medium bodied, medium carbonation. Dry with clean and firm bitterness.

adamjackson (1317) - Canaan, New Hampshire, USA - MAR 4, 2013
Hazy yellow. No head. Smells like Clorox and wheat. Bright but staggeringly dry taste and a decent citrus presence. Not a good beer sadly

SaintMatty (3705) - Uppsala, SWEDEN - FEB 21, 2013
500ml Bottle - Golden in colour. Lemon, malt and grain in the aroma. Lemon, malt and a hint of peach all feature in the refreshing taste.

gyllenbock (3022) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - FEB 18, 2013
Sample at a tasting at Systembolaget, February 2013. A bit hazy golden with a white head. Aroma of light hops, citrus and malt. The taste was on the sweet side with citrus, malt and some hay. The finish was dry. An ok beer.

SlackerMads (567) - DENMARK - FEB 3, 2013
Bottle. Hazy yellow with a small white head that leaves little lacing. Aroma is straw, dry grass, floral and spicy hop notes, bready pale malt, chalk, canned corn. Taste is medium bitter, light sweet. Medium body, oily texture, average carbonation. Medium bitter hoppy finish. Good for the style and very nice fresh noble hops.

gunnar (3735) - Sandnes, NORWAY - JAN 17, 2013
Shared bottle at Cardinal. Pours clear straw colored with a small white head. Aroma of spicy and herbal hops. Taste is dry, hayish hops, lingering till the end. Sharp and edgy at the beginning, more harmonic towards the end. Good beer.
