Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - SEP 20, 2003
Mine was named Moosehead Lager - but I think it is just a rebranding of the Moosehead beer. The color is golden and it has a fine bubbly head though fast disappearing. The aroma is malty and slightly sour - do I detect brewing cereal? the aroma also contains hoppy notes. The flavor is sweet malty with a slight sourness to go with it - again is it brewing cereal? It ends on a slightly hoppy notes. All in all the flavor is very simple. It is too sweet and a below average international lager.

Papsoe (21781) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - DEC 5, 2005
UPDATED: OCT 2, 2007 (Bottle 35,5 cl) Deep golden but completely lacking head. Lightly sweetish, malty aroma. Sweet, malty flavours with notes of corn or other brewing cereals and a metallic edge. Not bad but rather bland. 051205 and 040792
