A beer for diabetics. Low carbs and full attenuation. Also low character. Thin, with a malty sweet aroma.

Pale yellow body, small but nice head ( a diet!). Minimal hoppy perfume and corn aroma.Thin body, some hoppy taste, little papery. Don’t forget, this is a diet!!!

Sweet cereal odor, very thin yellow body and no head. Sharp grainy tastes with hints of apples. Thin body and overall not that enjoyable.

Bottled. Pale golden. Loads of honey in aroma. Pure bee honey. Very dry and a bit papery, also a ittle harsh. Light bodied. No bitterness.

(Bottle 33 cl) Aparently Holsten invented the diet-pils for diabetics - what a pathetic claim to fame... Apparently the secret is to let the brew ferment longer, thereby leaving no residual sugars. The beer is pale golden with a limited head. Expectedly dry without much bitterness. An unusual deal. 021199

Bottle. light yellow colour with virtually no head. Aroma and flavour of hops and malts. Boring, boring.

Bottle. Frothy fair white fully deminishing head. Yellow colour. Ligth hoppy aroma, almost nothing. Bad ugly harsh bitter flavor. Short finish. Really an ugly beer.

Sweet smell. Yellow body, flat carbonation, no head. Grainy flavor. Watery finish. Why must all the diet crap taste so bad!?
