Bottled. Amber colour, decent head. Sourish aroma with smallish notes of grass. At first sip, it feels hard, but then it softens and presents a little fruitiness, a dms-like maltiness, then it ends with a pleasant bitterness.

Bottled from Systembolaget, in 2005. I admit I was very suspicious when testing this the first time, a pilsner from Falcon? It was a fairly good effort though, better than most Falcon beers I had tried before. Deep golden to copper color, white head. Malty grainy scent and taste with hints of hops. Medium mouthfeel but too low bitterness for the style and also my taste.

Clear deep golden colour with a white head. Malty and sweet aroma with light notes of caramel and hops. Light caramel sweet flavor with some hoppy bitterness.

Dark yellow color, little white head. Mildly sweet and hoppy, still very thin aroma. Thin to medium bodied. Fruits in flavor, aftertaste mildly bitter.

Pours amber coloured with a medium white diminishing head. Grassy, slight metallic nose. Somewhat harsh in flavour with some notes of cooked vegetables and grass. Short aftertaste.

Amber coloured with a small white head. Aroma of malts, grains and hops. Flavour of malts, grains and hops.

Golden colour with a small off-white head. Malty light metallic aroma and a light sweet malty taste. Medium body and a light bitter sweet finish.

Bottled: Golden coloured. Highly carbonated. Clear. Off white fluffy head. Metal, iron and earth in the aroma. Earthy sharp hoppiness in the flaovur. Sweet and bitter in the end. Kind of boring.

Bottled. Golden colour with copperish hints, small foamy head. Sweet malty and hoppy nose, weird sweetish bitterflavour, which is kind of unpleasant. Very lagerish in my opinion.

Bottled (BB 07/2005)
Btrownish-golden color, small white head, lace. Aroma has caramel and faint hops. Malty, a bit metallic hard mouthfeel, finishing to some hoppy bitterness. Drinkable but not really a pilsener, more like a basic malty lager.

Bottled. Golden, short white head. Some malty, metallic aroma. Too sweet, almost artificial, flavour with unpleasant alco-feel.
