COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A German style beer, brewed in the traditional way with a second, cold fermentation, which is also called conditioning. The meaning of this step is to rinse out off- flavours with carbondioxied, which is produced by the beer itself, under light pressure. The taste is very light, at a usual content of alcohol about 5% by volume. And it is very mild hopped. The colour is very light too, because of the use of only one type of high quality two-row brewers malt. With natural content of CO2, combined with the light, non-aftertaste body it is a thirst quenching beverage for hot summer barbeques and refreshing taste.

Astringent, sour nose - yuck!. Yellow-gold color and a foamy head. Sour citrus tastes and a chalky aftertaste. Thin and a quick profile. Just plain bad.

yngwie (9205) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - MAR 31, 2012
Bottle. It’s a clear, pale golden colored beer, topped by a small, off-white head. The aroma has pale malts, fruityness and some yeast. Fruity, sweet and lightly oxidized flavor, rather uninteresting. Medium to thin on the palate, with a rather short and weak finish lacking on bitterness. Overall, a bit on the sweet side, and in my opinion, not very good either. 110826

Überdurchschnittliches Bier. Hat irgendwas an sich was es ziemlich lecker macht...Der Nachgeschmack verebbt leider etwas zu schnell, nicht allzu süffig. Test vom 12.9.2004, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,9,6,7,11,11 - 9,15
