Clear light to medium yellow orange color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly diminishing, white to off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, grain, toasted, fruity - lemon, cardboard. Flavor is moderate sweet and bitter with a average duration. Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft. [20090201]

A yellow beer with a small disappearing head. The aroma is slightly hoppy. The flavor is malty with a slight hoppy end.

UPDATED: JUN 16, 2005 (Bottle 37,5 cl) Another beer that suddenly appeared in Denmark due to the royal wedding when everything tasmanian was talk of the town. Golden, creamy. High malt-sweetness and very subdued bitterness. Very mainstream pale lager. 150205

37.5 cL bottle. Pours clear and pale yellow with a small white head. Smooth malty and slight earthy hops aroma. Smooth hoppy base flavour with a mild fruityness and a light caramel to biscuit malt sweetness. Medium bitterness and light sweetness into the finish. Clean and classic pale lager.

Bottled. Golden colour, mediumsized fluffy white head. Aroma is frshly cut grass with mild herbs along with hops and malts. Flavour is rather sweet malts with some hints of grassyness. Also quite grainy and hayish hoppy. I would say a rather smooth and pleasant pale lager.

Pale golden coloured. Fairly light bodied, hint of spices, bitter finish. Nothing special, but surely an acceptable lager.

Bottle, 5.0%. Rough aroma, old hops, some skunk. Clear yellow colour. Small white head. The flavour is quite citric, almost lemony. Other than that slightly grainy and sourish, so the lemon note actually helps hide the other flavours.
