Light and thin, obviously watered down, but the flavour that is left is all right. A little crisp bitterness in the finish. There are many discount beers worse than this!

Good enough to quench your thirst, but that is all. The taste is quite watery and boring without character.

Canned. Clear golden, brief head. Bready and grassy, thin bodied with some metal. Bready finish with some resiny bitter. Very simple.

Can from local Netto, cons 2010-12-03 Göteborg AR: hops, sugar, some caramel toffe AP: coppar yelllow, 2 cm froty white head F: watery, semie sweet, wee hoppy, dry, low bitterness, no body, but not ultra boring!

0.5l can courtesy of some friends who probably got it at the local Netto in Göteborg.
Poured a pale golden body with a light white head that went away at relatively slowly for the style. Sweet malty grainy nose. The taste is generally the same, not too bad for the "style", grain, maltiness, light acidity, maybe coming from hops that don’t leave much bitterness. Ok enough.

(50 cl bottle from my new local Netto store)
As "Darguner Premium Pilsener".
Clear pale golden color, rather small, but lasting, white head. Sweet and acidic malty and grainy scent. Also vegetables and some solvents. Metallic and malty taste, some smoke. Also a bit stale with vegetables again. Rather spritzy high co2 feeling with a thin mouthfeel behind that.
It’s quite easy to drink, not very horrible, yet it’s also quite boring and meaningless.
You want to get drunk on low alcohol beers with as little bad taste as possible? Then this might be a contender, otherwise it’s most likely going down the drain.

Bottle. Pours a pale golden colour with a thick longlasting white head. Aroma is malty and a little grassy. Thin malty flavor with a little bitterness in the aftertaste. Very high on the carbonation.

Bottled. Pale golden, thick white head. Mineral water with too much carbonation. Oh you mean it’s a beer? I didn’t notice...

Bottled. Brewed for the Swedish market. "Brewed" as in diluted with water maybe. Pale golden. Aroma is plain and cheap - a little plug-hole and a little of boiled eggs. Very much like the cheapest Ukrainian lagers. That is what we call character. Very thin mouthfeel. Not much else.
