Bottled@Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is grains, malts, earth and some mild notes of cardboard. Flavour is quite much the same. A lame and very bulk thing with not too much exciting notes in any way.

I tried this beer on September 8, 2009 after purchasing from one of my local LCBO outlets. The beer pours a translucent dark gold colour with a thin white bubbly head and a large amnount of effervescence. The aroma is grainy malt, and some hops. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour is malty, metallic, slightly sweet and a hoppish finish.

Strangebrewer (495) - Chatham, Ontario, CANADA - SEP 3, 2009
can. Poured clear pale yellow with an initial dense white head that eventually thinned out. Pungent hoppy-grain aroma. Smooth creamy mouthfeel. Medium bodied. Flavour is grainy/herbal. Metallic, slightly bitter finish. A non-offensive beer.

DerWeg (1251) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - JUL 18, 2009
Incredibly pale light clear yellowy gold, creamy white head that doesn’t stick. Lightly hoppy aroma with slick-sweet malts, maybe a prickle of sharp chemical smell. Taste is round and sweet with notes of apple, generic honey and lemon. Pluses high drinkability an non-offensive, minuses it’s kind of fake and has a slightly parching chemical feel, and I fear a Boris preservative-induced hang-over would be most wretched.

Boris (!) beer....reminds me of Boris the Spider and Boris the spy from the beloved Rocky and Bullwinkle show. From a silly little bottle, this poured a fomay white head of perhaps one finger’s depth. Where the hell did it go? Anywho, the colour was a rich, urine-like medium gold, accompanied by a delicate floral hopped nose. Both the initial and after tastes were somewhat sweet, and the mouthfeel was average. Not a dreadful beer, but beer is not what the French do best.
