Rich straw colour, tiny tight head. Served cold, very little aroma. Fizzy in the mouth, a bit harsh. Simple bready malts, some gingery hops, but has been emasculated by filtering. Would benefit from a thicker body. Quite like Plevna Tahti III.
ako (122), Turku, Finland Dec 7, 2007 Yellow/golden. Kinda hard to get a grip on, nothing special in either aroma or flavor. Then again, nothing really wrong with it, just no charisma. Your typical pale lager. Soft maltiness and a slight touch of bitter in the end. Hint of citrus in there somewhere. motelpogo (4111), Plzen, Czech Republic Nov 4, 2007 on tap at koulu in turku. unfiltered and so a lightly hazy golden. fresh but bland, light bitterness, hay and apple juice Marsiblursi (1270), Göteborg, Sweden Jun 9, 2007 (Bottle, thanks oh6gdx) Pours hazy amber. Mustard and mayonnaise aroma with a light grassy touch. A bit grainy, hay like and sourish. Grainy flavour with some metal and a light lemony bitter. Grain and some hay lingers. Light to medium body. gnoff (2532), Göteborg, Sweden Apr 15, 2007 (1 liter bottle, thanks Marsiblursi!) Shady apricot color, small white head. Citrus, dishwater, ammonia, lemon, grainy scent. Also sweet mustard and raspberry lemonade. Grainy sweet a bit metallic taste. Thin yet spritzy mouthfeel, low bitterness.
