500 ml can, ABV is 4.5%. Pale golden colour, big white head. Very moderate sweetish aroma, notes of candy. The flavour is utterly bland and boring, notes of pear drops in the sweetish finish. Another "lite" beer to be avoided.

Yellow colour with a white head. Light malt aroma. Light malty and hoppy with the normal Borg grassy flavour
[Can from Coop Prix in Halden, Norway]

Pale yellow of color with a white head. An aroma of flour, butter, hay and cereal. A flavor of cereal, grainy - thin!

Pours yellow with a white head. Aroma is biscuit, light lime, sweet malts and grains. Taste add some metal and weak citrus.

Can. Pours a pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma is grass and cooked vegetables with a sweet, almost candy-like touch. Flavour is dusty and sweetish with slight notes of cooked vegetables and faint notes of hops. Grassy finish. Blergh. 12.08.11.

01.07.2011, 0,5l Can. Ica Karmsundgata, Haugesund. Pale yellow colour with white head. Aroma is rather weak. This beer is just a little bit richer than a glass of water. Short dry afteraste.

Can. How come I haven’t been able to find this before? :-S Slightly dark-hued pale lager body, head goes *puff* and disappears extremely quickly. Aroma is sweet, wort-like pale malts and hints of some bad funk, reminding me of a washing cloth that’s been hanging in a semi-moist state in my kitchen for about a week or so. Taste is extremely bland, with hints of over-sweetened pale malts and strange metallic hints. Hard to describe it, actually, in other terms than "not good". While not being completely revolting, Borg Pilsner Lite just gets in line with all the other crappy "lite" lagers out there.

Can. Medium head with medium duration. Color is pale golden. Aroma and taste are malt and hops.

Clear golden with a medium white head. Sweet malty aroma with a grainy and hoppy notes. Sweet malty flavour with grainy and cardboard notes.

Can. A pale golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has strong notes of bread as well as some malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, metal, and bread, leading to a dry metallic finish. The body is thin. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

50 cL can. Pours clear and golden hazzlenut brown with a small white head. Aroma is roasted, light grassy hoppy. Bitter, light cornish and malty flavoured. Bitter and dry finish.
