Bottle @ Fastelavnssmagning 2012, Ulfborg. Pours clear yellow with a small off white head. Paper, corn and grain. Mild and anonymous. Watery. Citrussy . .

Bottled. A golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of vitamins, hay, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of straw, vitamins, and malt, leading to a bitter finish. I’m disappointed - I expected a Classique-cal Vienna from a Carlsberg company with this name.

Bottle. It pours a clear, golden body and a minimal-sized white head. More just a rim of bubbles than a real head actually. Super-neutral aroma, just a little fruityness escapes the glass. The flavor isn’t much more interesting than the aroma, lacking on most things, bitterness included. Medium body, dry and quite hard carbonated. What a super-uninteresting beer. 120217
