1.4 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Bottle. Trying to sample this one with an open mind, knowing that every rater before me has rated it very low. Well, already at the pour I see it ain’t gonna bring much joy. The body is pale, almost yellow, and topped by a white head of very moderate size. Aroma-wise it’s certainy not better, vegetal and slightly skunked as it is. Some fruityness blends in, like overripe pears and a touch of yellow apples. The flavor is decent. Sort of decent. At least it’s not very flawed, although a bit heavy on the metal. Not that there’s much flavor at all, some ripe pears and yellow apples, a faint touch of bitterness and also some grainy hints. The mouthfeel is thin and foamy, making me think of chewing soap foam, wihtout the soap flavor. Towards the very end there’s a touch of bitterness, just to tease you a little bit, making you think you might get a decent finish, although judging from the rest of the experience you know for sure that you don’t. The design of the bottle, and the color of the beer might lead a few youngsters to think it’s really an alkopop, I bet the brewery hope they do so, as I can’t really see it will be around for a long time if not. 110521

Wow, a surprisingly good beer that fits perfectly well with some slightly stronger food. The beer has a nice tartness from wheat malt that makes it stand out. A light quality beer!

even when it is made with minimum ingredients and as light as possible it is cold filtered for purity? as if they like their beer as close as water as possible.
0.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 2/20
Bottle. Clear light golden color with a white head. Aroma is rice and hay. Tastes like tap water with some citrus essence.
0.7 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 2/20
Well, I suppose you could technically call this a beer. Very, very pale in colour with a pathetic white head. Aroma more like a cheap white wine than a beer. Tastes like sparkling water drunk from a glass with some beer residues in it. No bitterness whatsoever, as promised. I guess I’d rather have this than a kick on the bollocks.
I heard this is designed to be a starting point for people who prefer wine or cider over beer. May well work for some people but my word, have they got a long way to go.
0.8 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 2/20
Bottled (from K Citymarket Lielahti, Tampere). Pale yellow colour with a small white head. Aroma is grainy and rubbery with mild cardboard. Flavour is very mild, but consists of the same. Watery. Rather harsh. It’s nice that Carlsberg makes a beer with a fancy design, but which contents are really crap.
1.1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 5/20
330 ml bottle from Metro-tukku. Extremely pale, non-existent head. Weak aroma. Watery taste with some grain. Scarcely any aftertaste. Not much of a beer.
1.4 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 6/20
UPDATED: MAY 5, 2012 330ml bottle (K Kamppi, Helsinki)
Doesn’t smell good. Corny or something. Watery palate. No taste worth mentioning, apart from some wank sweetish corniness. Finish is unpleasant. Fortunately quite brief. An abomination, without any actual horrors, it’s just one of the worst things I’ve put in my mouth that hasn’t made me want to actually spit it out immediately.
0.8 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20
A very light yellow beer with a weak and white head. Aroma is quite sweet, corn, metallic and musty. Taste is extremely light, some lemon, even almost nonexistent taste but still musty. Light, soda light carbonation. Very worthless beer, light flavours and even them are quite unpleasant.
0.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 1/20
33cl bottle. Clear, light piss with snowy white head. Nose ; smells like white wine ; very fruity. Sip : ....ugh, what the hell is that ??? Soap water ?
1.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Pours almost colorless golden with a medium head. Aroma is grainy malts. Nonexistent flavor is mostly malts. Barely drinkable.
