Poured it in a nonic pint. Nice golden body with a thin creamy head.

Malty and hoppy flavor, nice bitterness.
Watery in the mouth with very small bubbles.
The finish is a bit more bitter.
A really nice lager.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20 Maria (7805) - Thisted, DENMARK - JAN 3, 2007
Beautiful, golden, nice head. The tongue is bombarded with notes of flower, hops, malt and a hint of licorice, and even if it’s a lager, it’s more like an ale. The bitterness is moderate - and it’s a really nice beer.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 Miksu (3887) - Jyväskylä, FINLAND - DEC 26, 2006
0,5 l bottle. Golden to copper color with small head. Refreshing malty aroma with distant grapefruity hops. Malty flavor along with strong grapefuity, citrusy and herbal hop flavor. Crisp bitter finish. Quite suprising hop element reminding Brooklyn lager.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 lagomswedish (213) - Umeå, SWEDEN - DEC 1, 2006
Bottle from the Systembolaget.
This Swedish lager is dripping with gold Medals, but I’m sorry - I’m a sinner because I just didn’t get this beer.
Light copper coloured and average head. Flowery aroma. The cascade hops came crashing in to the mouth, bringing with them electricly charged floral-citrus flavours and leaving behind a huge bitter finish.
Unbalanced hop/malt combo and too much fizz for my liking, making the burp factor high and drinkability low.
On the back label they say it’s a ’Hellava’ beer, but I’ll look to Heaven for my next drink.
