The can looks not too bad, the beer in the glass also. Not very light, almost a little bit turbid. Starts sweet, becomes than more and more sourish and fruity, very strange. Not a good beer.

Golden color with white fluffy head. Not much of an aroma maybe a bit fruity. A bit hoppy and fruity taste with some bitterness in palate. No aftertaste to talk about. Typical cheap pilsner.

50cl plastic bottle. My god! What a weak attempt to make it look like something speciel! Clear gold with a white head. Lots of grain & hay. Watery & a bit sour & sharp taste. Very poor!

Can. Dark golden with white head, quickly diminishing. Aroma quite hoppy and mild. Taste very mild and malty, very little bitterness. Easy to drink, easy to forget.

Beers that come in plastic bottle and turn of capsules - doesn’t send the best signal IMO.... This one has a very brief nice hoppy bitterness, and notes of caramel, a bit of nuts and sweetness. It has neither finer point, personality nor body.

Heavy malty and light bread aroma. Large white head. Good lacing. Mostly diminishing longevity. Clear yellow body. Heavy bitter initial flavor. Light to medium palate.

Can. A clear, golden beer with a white head. Weak aroma, with hay and a little fruityness. The flavor has alcohol, grain, hay and some bittering hops, and finishes with hay and alcohol, as well as some bitterness. Not much of anything I’m afraid. Thin body too. A boring beer that shouldn’t have had the taste of alcohol, it’s only 4.6% ABV. (070803)

Can. [Courtesy of Papsoe] Large foamy white head that mostly lasted. Clear sparkling body with a golden color. Good display of lacework. Aroma of grass, hay, grain, hint of cardboard like notes. Light bodied with a soft carbonation and hint of dry and thin texture. Flavor was light bitter with some sweet notes as well. Light dry and somewhat bitter finish.

33 cL can, thanks to papsøe for this, amazing what he can pull out of his stock sometimes :). Pours clear golden orange with a white head. Sweet malty aroma. Sweet malty, slight earthy flavoured. Vague bitterness and mild sweetness in the finish.

Can. Clear golden colour with medium creamy white mostly diminishing head. malty aroma. Sweet bitter flavor with bitter finish. Watery palate.
