A fair white head covers the clear, very pale golden body. Impressively clean nose, immensely bready pils malts, to the point of hinting at butter or social tea biscuits - all in the utmost freshness. Underneath, soft herbal, grassy hops serve mostly a support function, procuring a certain crispness within precise, yet small bitterness. Dry palate, light-to-medium body, focused at drinkability. Just delicate and well rounded malts. A bit better than the ratings indicate I would say. That brewery is well beyond average at everything.

Bottle. Slightly hazy, golden, with a medium white head. Malty aroma with some fruitiness (oeaches), and herbal hops. Medium bodied. Very bitter finsish. quite good, but Jämtlands Hell is much better.

Bottle. Lightly hazed, pale yellow/golden color. Small filmy white head. Vague, but pleasant and fresh aromas of citrus, flowers and herbs... with slight fruity/acidic scents. Flavor-full. Dry pale malts, light acidic fruits, gentle hops, notes of honey. Skinny body. Mellow hopbitter finish. A very likeble and unusual pilsner.

Bottle. Really liked this one before but I guess my taste has changed. Clear golden colour with a white head. Aroma of malts & hops, a little bit fruity. Medium bitter flavour but slightly flat.

Bottle from Systembolaget. Not my favourite Jamtlands by a long way. Agreed it’s got bags more character than many of the pilsners I’ve rated to date, but it’s mainly dry (a little dusty) with a bitter finish and a flash of tart grapefruit. I’ll be going back to their Bärnsten but not this one again.

0.5 l bottle. Light golden color with creamy head. Firm peppery and herbal hop aroma along with good malt aroma. Malty, grainy, bitter and a bit salty flavor. Citrusy, bitter and soapy finish. Good beginning but unpleasant finish.

Golden with a huge and nice head. The aroma is inviting with floral and hoppy notes. The flavour has nice floral and hoppy notes, a light and balanced sweetness, and a nice long and nicely bitter finish.

Bottle. Pour a clear golden colour with a fast disappearing white head. Sweet malty citrus aroma with some floral hoppy hints. Has a sweet malty flavor with hints of hops and a malty finish with some bitterness in the aftertaste.

Bottle. Light golden with a tall white head. Aroma of malt, second-hand clothes and slightly bitter. Flavour of grain and a little bit of hops. I also wrote "Troldepus" under flavour - a little troll that has a magic white wand (nothing dirty). I have no clue whatsoever as to why I got that association when rating this beer. Fresh beer in the not so good kinda way.

Clear golden with a small white head. Sweet citrus aroma, slightly herbal and malty. The palate is a little fizzy, and the flavour mildly sweet, with caramel, moderate spicy hop bitterness and a herbal finish.
