Ungstrup (23960) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - OCT 26, 2006
An orange beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of straw, but also light notes of caramel and grain. The flavor is sweet malty with a dry grainy end. Quite good for a Lite beer - and an Icelandic beer.

Papsoe (22985) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - OCT 3, 2005
(Can 50 cl) Pale pilsener golden with the tiniest head. Incredibly light-bodied and very watery. No real feel of malt and only a faint touch of hops. Lite in each and every meaning of the word. 011005

Canned at Petelax Beer Festival. Very pale yellow, airy head. Light vegetable aroma. Sweet and extremely thin. Empty with no trace of malt nor hops. Disgusting metallic finish with rotting garbage. Lick licking on ice cold metal at a garbage dump.
