Light and crispy with fluffy head. Minimal flavor and borderline "lite" beer. Slightly flintstone vitamin-tasting.

Can->lager. Cloudy gold with bare white head. Aroma: grains, malt, notes of fruit. Taste: bread, malt, slightly tart fruit. Good for the style.

355ml can. Some sweet and citrus aromas. Pours hazy golden, with average white head, poor lacing. Light to medium body, average carbonation, slightly crispy texture. Taste is kind of sweet, some herbal. Sweet aftertaste.

Can:   Pale straw, hazy, moderate sudsy white head, spotty lacing.   Soft fruity grassiness up front.   Somewhat of a sweet grassy backside.   Fairly clean, lingering fruitiness (very subtle).   For a Premium Lager this is fairly tasty.   Not a crisp example, weighs fairly heavy on the tongue.   Moderate to full body and mouthfeel.   Clean finish, with soft floral and fruity notes.   I can really dig this one.

355 ml can. Canned 03/08/12. Kaisla, Helsinki, Finland.
Cloudy golden colour with a tiny white head. Malt, spices and mild hoppy bitterness in the aroma. The flavour is sweetish caramel, candies, mild bitter hops and malt. Some grassy bitterness in aftertaste. Quite OK.

Smells stale and malty. Nice appearance, clear pale straw color with a foamy white head. Taste is alright for a lager, but I’m not a fan of the style.

This is a great example of a boring style. The aroma is full of grain. It has a light refreshing body that is great for a day at the beach. The flavor is grainy and yeasty with a fruity malt finish. Its probably the best lager I can get on a regular basis but for the most part I’d rather go for something more interesting.

Almost eco levels of graininess in the aroma - but no grunge. Pale orange, not quite clear. Sweet and biscuity or even flapjacky in the mouth, slight dusty husks. Smooth and full mouthfeel, but pleasant carbonation.Like the grains - clearly the ingredients are important. I do like it, but the sweetness is too high.

Pours a pale gold with a large white head. Aroma of grains and light fruit. Flavor of toasted malts and very slight citrus hops at the finish.

Pale blond colour, white creamy head. Aroma is wheaty, floury touch of cream slight grassy hops. Little bit fruity too. Taste is similar, crisp and refreshing. Light bitterness, some wheat and cream, little bit of pineapple band tropical fruit. Nothing too controversial but pretty nice for a lager.
