Yes, the head is creamy and soft, nice aroma, but the flavors aren't that much more than a standard lager. This beer must be some kind of compromise but could well serve as an introductory beer for habit-lager-drinkers inte more flavor fullbodied beers. I keep on buying this one. I drive too much!

On Tap,Country Pub -London, light amber in color,no head,minimal aroma hops,some esters evident,not quite sure what they were,too much smoke at the time.Good session beer,but lacks the character to make me want to have more than one.

ante (3375) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - MAR 4, 2004
Golden colour with notes of copper. Medium-sized white creamy head. Discret aroma of butter, toffee and hops. Thin body but the malty sweet flavour can handle it quite good. The best beer avaiable at my local grocery store.

Nice golden color, with a nice and somewhat creamy head. Aroma is surprisingly good from toffee and butter. Also somewhat spicy. Flavor is some toffe, and with some bitterness in the finish. Very good to be a 3.5, quite ok to be a beer...
