Bottled. Clear pale golden, mid-sized head. Grassy nose with a dash of lemon. Dry and crisp, but also clean hard with light body. Marked spicy, grassy hops, some sourdough and resiny bitterness. Surprisingly reefreshin and pilsnerish for a Carlsberg. It was certainly not unpleasant to drink this after a run.

UPDATED: FEB 29, 2012 Bottle. Yellow colour with a white head. A bit sweet nose and light fruity. A strange sweetish flavour with some metal?

330ml bottle. Pours a pale straw, with a white head. Quite malty, clean aroma, lightly hoppd, hints of yeast and citrus. Dry, light bodied, medium bitterness, balanced CO2. Malty taste, rather elegant for the style, faintly yeasty, subdued hop notes, some citrus, Quite pleasant and drinkable rendition of the style. (2011-12-29)

Sampled at SBWF. Stockholm, September 29th, 2011.
Soft and smooth with a round sweet malty aroma. Smooth body with a big clean taste of malt, some hops in the background. A tad to sweet for me to really enjoy.

Bottle from Systembolaget. Brilliant pale gold. Tall coarse white head. Swedish pale lager aroma; Sweet-scented, grainy pale malts. Unfresh grassy/hay-ish hops. Sweet malt drops flavor. Moderate, skunked up hop bitterness. Lacks fullness and smoothness. Sourish malts and faint cardboardy hops in the finish. 0uch!
