2.3 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 7/20
Medium gold, thick white head disappears slowly. Aromas are a mixed bag - some nice german hops and rich, light malt character is brought down by a musky alcoholic taste. Taste is sweet with more bitterness than most macrolagers; not terribly balanced. But the mouthfeel is a bit too syrupy for the bitterness to really balance out. It’s fine, but not great. Beers this light probably shouldn’t be even this heavy.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Very nice beer. A great taste - more complex than the little well-known brother.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle 330ml. Not bad. Aromas of malts, and straw. Taste is sweet, with light bitterness, and good length. Palate is oily and smooth. Dark yellow, with a frothy head that disappears early.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Green bottle. Lightly skunky aroma with a little bit of grassiness. Pours a deep golden with a smallish white head. Minimal lacing. Medium bodied with a long bitter finish. Hops are well melded with a lite cracker malt. Kind of like a decent Heinekin without the overwhelming skunk aroma. 7.2 is well hidden. Nice slick mouthfeel.
1.9 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
500 ml can. HHOK5. From København, Denmark.
Clear pale golden colour with small white head.
Some malt and alcohol in aroma.
Mild malt, berries, alcohol, hints of hoppy bitterness and perfumy sweetness in flavour. Not bad for a high ABV Pale Lager.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Multiple tastings. Getting caught up on my life beer list ... I remember drinking this many years ago. Did not leave much of an impression.
