KimJohansen (10337) - Copenhagen V, DENMARK - DEC 30, 2008
Clear golden with a large white head. Aroma was sweet and malty. Flavour was sweet and malty with caramel and mild towards the finish that made it bitter.

kappldav123 (3124) - Markkleeberg, GERMANY - JUN 7, 2011
Bottle looks simple, but good. Beer in the glass zippy, small head. Starts mild, but not washy, modest dry background. Finish a bit malty-moldy, but still okay. Quite drinkable. Not bad!

oh6gdx (15510) - Vasa, FINLAND - NOV 7, 2011
Bottled (from mein-biershop.de). Golden colour, small off-white head. Aroma is bready malts, some mild herbal and grassy notes as well. Flavour is malty, bready, herbal and grassy with only mild cardboardy notes. A surprisingly good Leicht.

Papsoe (21782) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - JAN 2, 2007
(Bottle 50 cl) Clear, pale golden with a small, creamy, white head. Vague aroma of hops. Very light-bodied with lightly malty accents and a whiff of cardboard. A nice hopping in the finish rounds this one off pretty nicely. 151206

rosenbergh (3145) - Helsinki, FINLAND - FEB 11, 2012
500 ml bottle. From mein-biershop.de.
Clear pale golden colour with small to average size white head. Aroma is combination of grainy malt and grassy hops. Flavour is bready malt, cardboard and mild grassy hops. Slightly watery. Drinkable. I’ve had lots of much worse non-light Pilseners.
