Bottle. Clear golden colour with a medium thick white head. Aroma is hoppy citrus. Slightly bitter finish.

A pretty ok pilsner. A nice bitterness. Very light in color with a white head.

Slight malt and hop aroma, light spice and note of noble hops. Slight skunk. No fruit esters, no diacetyl. Very clear, straw gold color, minimal head retention, white and fizzy. Medium carbonation that was crisp and bitter. Malt was noticeable but was secondary to the noble hops. Very light hint of sweetness. Clean, no fruit esters, no diacetyl. Medium carbonation, no noticeable alcohol warmth. Low to medium body. Matches style. Matches the German Pils style, skunk aroma and flavor were too noticeable however. Malt was not noticeable enough in the flavor of the beer, being overpowered by the hops.

(Bottle 0,33l) Very light sweet, light grainy, light hops aroma. Light sparkling light yellow color. Minimal white head. Light bitter. Fizzy. Medium body. Sticky texture. Dry finish.

Bottle with Carl. Pours light yellow with spotty foam. Smells light and lagered. Tastes flat and somewhat old with a hint of sweetness at the beginning fading to an almost spoiled bitter at the end.

Bottle at Bishops Arms in Örebro. It poured a watery pale golden liquid with a white head. Mild and lightly malted with some iron. An easy to drink pilsner but nothing special and the iron drags down the score.

Dry and carbonated, with a slightly bitter finish. Not much going on aroma-wise but a good refreshing beer on a hot day.

Bottle at Epcot in Disney World. Clear golden with a moderate white head. Aroma of pilsner malt and light hops, with a significant presence of something pungent and a little foul, like burning hair... Taste was ok, but not much to it. At least the foulness was toned down a bit. Light bodied. Drinkable, but try not to smell it.
