(Bottle 33 cl) Pours a clear amber with a creamy, off-white head. Distinct caramel in the nose. Medium-bodied with sweet caramel and toffee accents - almost sticky. A light edge of nuts. Very subdued bitterness. 040506
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20 larsga (4664) - Oslo, NORWAY - FEB 16, 2006
Medium coarse-laced off-white head shrinks rapidly. Light chestnut brown body. Faint, malty aroma with notes of cardboard. Sweet taste of soft malts with buttery, sugary, cinnamon aftertaste. Watery mouthfeel. Not much taste, and what’s there is vaguely unpleasant. Not recommended.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 KnutAlbert (4613) - Oslo, NORWAY - FEB 1, 2006
Rather malty - a bit more caramel colour and taste than the other Grans brews, but still watery. A little hops, could certainly do with more.
Easy-drinking discount beer.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 yngwie (9201) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - JAN 31, 2006
Bottled. Golden with a small white head. Aroma of malt and some caramel. Flavor is artificial fruity-sweet and malty. Sticky mouthfeel and weak hoppy finish. Again, nothing great from Grans. Cheers to Grans for coming with something new, then. I think it should be called a pale lager, and not a vienna. It has nothing to do with a vienna either, it’s just a lager with some more color and toffee. (060131)
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20 Sigmund (3713) - Hafrsfjord, NORWAY - JAN 31, 2006
330 ml clear bottle. This winter lager is slightly darker than your average pils, like a Danish "Classic" or maybe a Vienna - this is definitely not a Dunkel! Deep golden to amber colour, decent lingering head. Fairly pleasant but very moderate aroma of hops and some toffee. Flavour is bland and boring, some dusty hops and hints of caramel and wet cardboard. Another weak product from Grans!
