1.2 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 4/20 tarjei (1954) - Bryne, NORWAY - APR 23, 2007
Can. Oh dear! What a waste of time and money and malt (if there is that sort of thing in it) and hops (hops?) and water (lots of water) and yeast (yeast = alcohol, and that´s the hole point, isn´t it). Gimme a coke.
1.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20 OleR (4247) - Oslo, NORWAY - APR 23, 2007
Can. Thin, vanishing white head over brilliant pilsnener golden body. Low aroma level; no malts, only some whiffs of apple-juice and weak hayish hops. Not flavorfull either; unfresh and sourish with hints of bittering hops. A little more body than the averege Norwegian ’summer-lager’, but still bland and boring.
1.3 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20 KnutAlbert (5186) - Oslo, NORWAY - APR 18, 2007
Instad of brewing a smoky ale to go with the barbecue, a juniper beer to go with cured ham or other varieties of tasty beers, they give us another watery lager. This is as bad as the rest of the range of summer beers. Avoid.
1.3 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20 Finn (3090) - Tromsø, NORWAY - APR 14, 2007
Can 0,5l. Pale golden coloured. A shortlived white fluffy head. Some malt in an otherwise weak aroma. Flavor of burned malt with some sweetness. Dry bitter finish. Good grief! I’m afraid that this beer is typical for the forthcoming flow of tasteless summer-pilseners from the Norwegian macro breweries.

500ml can from my local Prix-store. Clear golden body. Filmy white layer. Grassy aroma with a malty touch. Lightly malted taste with lemon accents. Pleasant, but short bitter end. Light bodied. Alright as a partner to my Good Friday dinner (06.04.2007).
