drpimento (1936) - La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA - SEP 30, 2009
Got this bottle last week at Sendik’s (?) in Minneapolis. I poured it agressively and got a decent white head and no lace. Color is a clear yellow gold. Aroma was very beery with some malt and hop. Flavor was immediately bittersweet followed by a cornsweetener like flavor. Fairly clean. Sharp carbonation and not much body. Short, forgettable finish. Had many lots worse and better.

Chaasrainer (13) - FINLAND - MAY 29, 2009
500ml can. Pours clear golden. A white head with average lacing. Aroma is very light with some vegetables and sweetness. Flavor is also light, sweet and watery. Palate I think is actually pretty nice for an otherwise basic lager. This is not bad, but lacks personality and is just plain boring.

fonefan (29292) - VestJylland, DENMARK - APR 21, 2009
Can 50cl. @ home.
Clear medium yellow orange color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly diminishing, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate malty, grian, molasses. Flavor is moderate sweet and light to moderate bitter with a average duration. For me a cheap pale lager just borring but not bad. Body is light to medium, texture is watery to oily, carbonation is soft. [20090131]

WakeandBake (549) - Greenville, Michigan, USA - APR 14, 2009
Brown 11.2 FL OzBottle, Label reads Bear Beer 5% ABV. A clear golden color with two fingers of white frothy head that goes away fast,lots of carbonation. Aroma of slightly skunky citrus hops and a lightly roasted malt . Flavor is lightly bitter,a bit of skunk,a splash of lemon ,some hay, a bit of malt for balance,by far not the best Lager I’ve ever had,but it’s crisp,clean and refreshing, a fun try .

Christian (9697) - Odense, DENMARK - APR 10, 2009
Yellow with a small white head. Grainy sweet malt aroma with a little diacetyl. Sweet malty flavour with diacetyl and an odd herbal note

Frovigalning (2024) - Örebro, SWEDEN - MAR 14, 2009
Drank from a can. Fizzy and slightly bitter taste. Taste a bit like water mixed with some beer extract. Easy to drink but extremely boring.

500ml can - - Supermarket - 4.7%
Pale gold, tiny head. Sweetish simple malty aroma, rather nondescript. Palate, ditto, a bit watery. Taste ditto, mostly a trace of sweet malt. Some slightly papery hops too. Finish? What finish. OK, I finished it, that is the only finish I remember. Fortunately not particularly nasty, and was nice and bready in the sauna löylyä.
